Writing Memoir: Memoirs as instruments of healing, advocacy and resistance
WSU professors and authors, Debbie Lee and Ray Sun, will talk about the genre of memoir and how they serve to give a personal voice to important global issues.
During the livestream, Lee will share about and from a memoir she is writing that links personal challenges to her first-hand encounter with the effects of global warming in the Artic.
Sun will share how memoirs provide unique and accessible sources that enable us to grasp the impact of war and genocide on societies, cultures, and individuals.
