SUMMARY:Applied Words: On Belonging
DESCRIPTION:In a city—let alone a world—of vast geographies\, identities\, experience and more\, how do we understand our place? \nUsing personal stories\, our guest authors will navigate the territory of belonging in a special Applied Words program that highlights two of the Guild’s 25 Writers to Watch\, Rebecca Kling and Sahar Mustafah\, and includes José Ángel N.\, author of Illegal: Reflections of an Undocumented Immigrant. \nOn Belonging will take place in the upstairs event space of Schubas Tavern (3159 N Southport). Admission is pay-what-you-can ($5 suggested donation). A full bar and food menu is available. \n  \nABOUT OUR AUTHORS \nRebecca Kling is a transgender artist and educator who explores gender and identity through solo pieces and educational workshops.
