To participate in this live, synchronous event, join Patricia Glazebrook’s presentation using Zoom. Glazebrook, whose research has taken her to Africa for the past 18 years, will provide a starting point to understand some of the context behind Trevor Noah’s memoir.  Drawing on her own experiences researching women, climate, poverty, agriculture, and conflict/genocide in Africa, Glazebrook will provide a brief account of the consequences of colonization/partition, its ecosystem and geographical magnificence, as well as its tragedies of conflict, corruption, poverty, and environmental damage.  Hosted by the WSU Common Reading Program (Pullman).
