Summer Salons with the Brooklyn Museum: Alexander Chee and Darnell Moore

Celebrate the summer with readings from Alexander Chee and Darnell Moore, authors of a piercing and intimate essay collection and memoir that illuminate their lives as authors and activists. After sharing selections from How to Write an Autobiographical Novel and No Ashes in the Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America, the authors will be joined by poet Saeed Jones to discuss the ways in which their work explores the intersection of race and sexuality, and navigates truth and fiction in their own lives. The evening culminates with a book signing.

Thanks to a partnership with the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, this program is free of charge, but RSVP is encouraged
