The Hidden Historians of War and the Places They Carry: Refugee Stories from Iraq and Syria
What happens when the history of a war and its survivors is told not only through books, but through the objects and memories people carry with them? Join journalist and scholar Stephanie Saldaña, who lived in Syria before the war, as she shares from her new book What We Remember Will Be Saved: A Story of Refugees and the Things They Carry. She will describe her journey across nine countries to meet refugees and learn what they salvaged from the ruins when they escaped.
