Listen to a poetry reading and panel discussion related to the exhibit Dreaming People's History: The Asian American Radical Imagination, on view April 29–August 6, 2023, in the Jewett Gallery on the Lower Level of the Main Library. Event features a hip hop performance by Son of Paper. 

About the exhibit: Kearny Street Workshop presents Dreaming People’s History, an exhibition of past and present Asian American arts and activism. Through oral histories, posters, murals, literature, research projects, and contemporary art, the exhibition uplifts Asian American history as the creative product of artists, writers, and organizers reclaiming the struggles of preceding generations. Their work testifies that the promise of the Asian American Movement is more than a cultural identity. To dream people’s history is to challenge the American Dream with the truth of the past, the creative agency of the present, and the radical possibility of the future.
