Oakland Public Library 125 14th Street
Oakland, CA 94612 United States

Join us at the Oakland Public Library Main Branch for this special Meet The Author event! 

Jeff Chang is a writer, host, and organizer known for his work at the intersection of the arts, politics, and race. His latest book is Water Mirror Echo: Bruce Lee and the Making of Asian America, a cultural biography. In it Chang “reveals the man behind the enduring iconography and stirringly shows how Lee’s growing fame ushered in something that’s turned out to be even more enduring: the creation of Asian America.”

Chang will be joined by Librarian Ian Hetzner for a far-reaching conversation about Chang’s career in cultural criticism, and Water Mirror Echo.

It should make for a wonderful, compelling night!
