Butte College is set to host poet Brynn Saito who will share her work via Zoom on November 10 from 1-2 p.m. PT.

Saito is a Kundiman Asian American poetry fellow and a two-time recipient of the California State Library’s Civil Liberties Public Education grant for her work with Yonsei Memory Project (YMP). She will share her experiences collaborating and documenting the stories of survivors of the WWII-era incarceration of the Japanese American community. Saito will also read new poetry inspired by her family's story of incarceration and discuss how poetry has served as a practice for healing and freedom. 

To catch Saito’s reading and discussion please be sure to register in advance here.
