While events are postponed at The Graduate Center of the City University of New York in the heart of Manhattan, videos of recent public programs from its archive will be featured here for your enjoyment. The videos offer illuminating discussions in two main categories: insights into current events and conversations with leading writers and artists. (Courtesy of GC CUNY’s Public Programs archive.)
Roxane Gay, a powerful literary voice and one of today’s most-watched cultural critics, joins in a reading and conversation with acclaimed fiction writer Katia D. Ulysse. Gay’s best-selling books include Bad Feminist; Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body; and Difficult Women. Ulysse is the author of Drifting and Mouths Don’t Speak. The writers, who both have Haitian roots, read from their work before a discussion with Tami Navarro of the Barnard Center for Research on Women.
