Josh Tuininga, author  of "We are Not Strangers" will be here to talk about his graphic novel. 

We Are Not Strangers is based on the true story of a Sephardic Jewish immigrant who helped his Japanese-American neighbors when they were incarcerated during WWII. In this talk, Josh Tuininga traces his family's Sephardic roots as they flee their home in Turkey, discover opportunities in America, and forge a new community in the multicultural neighborhood of the Seattle Central District. Through a visually engaging presentation, Tuininga will share the intricacies of his research and his creative process, while unraveling the profound lessons embedded in these tales of allyship and unity amidst the turbulence of wartime.
