Associated Writing Programs Conference
Panel discussion: “Class and Conflict On The Other Side of the World”

Scheduled Room: 210, 212 - Colorado Convention Center
R137. Class and Conflict on the Other Side of the World.
Panel Participants: Masha Hamilton, Thrity Umrigar, C.M. Mayo, Rishi Reddi.
As we become more globally linked, the role of fiction in providing a human and humane glimpse of “the other” becomes more important. But it is a challenging task. How do writers develop confidence to tell stories of cultures and countries where they don’t reside? Why are such stories critically important? Authors—who between them write about everywhere from Asia to the Middle East to Africa to Mexico—explore this issue.
