On September 25th, join the Indian writer, producer, and educator Zara Chowdhary for explorations of her debut memoir, The Lucky Ones, a personal account of her experience as a sixteen-year-old during the 2002 communalist riots and anti-Muslim pogroms in Gujarat. How does a writer excavate a family’s life within a city’s razed histories? How do they illuminate India’s Muslim question through personal witness?

This event is a free, community-oriented discussion on Chowdhary’s debut memoir.
