Join the Asian American Studies Program for an engaging conversation with award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling author Rebecca F. Kuang, the brilliant mind behind the Poppy War trilogy, Babel: An Arcane History, and Yellowface.

📅 Friday, February 21

Kuang’s works delve into themes of colonial resistance, cultural appropriation, and the complexities of power and identity. Her latest novel, Yellowface, tackles diversity, racism, and the alienation of social media with razor-sharp wit.

She will be joined in conversation by Professor Michelle N. Huang of Northwestern University, an expert in Asian American literature and culture.
