Join us on April 12, 2023 from 6:30-8PM EST for this salon-style conversation between Booker Prize finalist novelist Nadifa Mohamed in discussion with the poet and filmmaker Ladan Osman, talking about Mohamed's book, THE FORTUNE MEN, and how experiences of diaspora across the world shaped a unique black Muslim experience, which was equal parts cosmopolitan and insular. Mohamed and Osman will speak about how to write and narrate this duality in fiction and poetry.
