SUMMARY:Author Works: Sara Novic & "True Biz"
DESCRIPTION:June 28\, 2023 8 – 9pm ET \nAcclaimed author and Deaf Rights activist Sara Novic discusses her novel Tru Biz in a special conversation with Dr. Julie Rems-Smario. \nTrue biz (adj./exclamation; American Sign Language): really\, seriously\, definitely\, real-talk \nTrue biz? The students at the River Valley School for the Deaf just want to hook up\, pass their history finals\, and have politicians\, doctors\, and their parents stop telling them what to do with their bodies. This revelatory novel plunges readers into the halls of a residential school for the deaf\, where they’ll meet Charlie\, a rebellious transfer student who’s never met another deaf person before; Austin\, the school’s golden boy\, whose world is rocked when his baby sister is born hearing; and February\, the hearing headmistress\, a CODA (child of deaf adult(s)) who is fighting to keep her school open and her marriage intact\, but might not be able to do both. As a series of crises both personal and political threaten to unravel each of them\, Charlie\, Austin\, and February find their lives inextricable from one another—and changed forever. \nThis is a story of sign language and lip-reading\, disability and civil rights\, isolation and injustice\, first love and loss\, and\, above all\, great persistence\, daring\, and joy. Absorbing and assured\, idiosyncratic and relatable\, this is an unforgettable journey into the Deaf community and a universal celebration of human connection. \nVoice interpretation and CART provided. Q&A follows the conversation. \nThis event is a partnership between Howard County Association of the Deaf\, Maryland Deaf Culture Digital Library\, and Howard County Library System. \nAbout Sara \nSara is the author of the instant NYT Bestseller True Biz\, as well as the books Girl at War and America is Immigrants.She holds an MFA in fiction and literary translation from Columbia University\, and is an instructor of Deaf studies and creative writing. She lives in Philadelphia with her family. \nYou can find her on Twitter + Instagram.

SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Heroes of the Underground Railroad
DESCRIPTION:Registration not required\, but encouraged. Please register for the event on Eventbrite here. \nDr. Jenny Masur will discuss her latest book\, Heroes of the Underground Railroad around Washington DC\, sharing stories of nine Maryland freedom seekers originating from a variety of counties and settling in varied destinations in the Northeast and abroad. In some ways the experiences of these men and women fit stereotypes of the Underground Railroad—Vigilance Committees\, Quakers\, crossing into Pennsylvania\, heading to the north. However\, their stories are unexpected in the key interventions of fellow African Americans\, and in the necessity of repeated flight forcing them to rebuild their lives more than once.  Hope you will join us for this important event. \nASL interpretation will be available for attendees. \nPresented in partnership with The Maryland State Archives and The Maryland Four Centuries Project. \n\nDial-In Information \n  \nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://marylandlibraries.zoom.us/j/91826279359?pwd=eloxQnprVHpVRGtkbjBSVVBkMjhmZz09\nPasscode: 271807\nOr One tap mobile :\nUS: +13017158592\,\,91826279359#\,\,\,\,*271807#  or +13126266799\,\,91826279359#\,\,\,\,*271807#\nOr Telephone:\nDial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\nUS: +1 301 715 8592  or +1 312 626 6799  or +1 470 250 9358  or +1 470 381 2552  or +1 646 518 9805  or +1 646 558 8656  or +1 651 372 8299  or +1 786 635 1003  or +1 267 831 0333  or +1 253 215 8782  or +1 346 248 7799  or +1 602 753 0140  or +1 669 219 2599  or +1 669 900 9128  or +1 720 928 9299  or +1 971 247 1195  or +1 213 338 8477\nWebinar ID: 918 2627 9359\nPasscode: 271807\nInternational numbers available: https://marylandlibraries.zoom.us/u/aZ9fVB5cL \nThe presentation will also be broadcast on the Enoch Pratt Free Library Facebook page.
