Description:

Join us for a reading and Q & A with Julissa Arce, writer, activist, and social changemaker.

She is the nationally best-selling author of My (Underground) American Dream and Someone Like Me. Her newest book, You Sound Like a White Girl: The Case for Rejecting Assimilation, is a powerful dual polemic and manifesto against the myth that assimilation leads to happiness and belonging for immigrants in America.

Those attending the program will have an opportunity to take home a free copy of You Sound Like a White Girl, provided by the LA Made fund.

This program was made possible with the generous support of the Library Foundation of Los Angeles.
