DESCRIPTION:Nov. 30th, Thursday, 7 p.m. Lauren Markham will read from her book, The Far 
 Away Brothers: Two Young Migrants and the Making of an American Life, the 
 true story of teenagers, Ernesto and Raul Flores, identical twins, who flee 
 the violence in their home country of El Salvador, a country which was torn 
 apart by a 12 year U.S. backed civil war.  \n\nThis book is especially 
 timely since the Trump/Pence fascist regime has demonized immigrants, 
 making life a nightmare for millions who fear detention, deportation, and 
 being torn from their loved ones.  Thousands of unaccompanied children have 
 crossed the border, leaving behind their families and their countries.  
 This is a story of two of those children, the family they left behind, 
 their dangerous journey and their life in the U.S. \n\nLauren Markam is a 
 writer and works at a high school for immigrant youth. \n\n"The Far Away 
 Brothers is impeccably timed, intimately reported and beautifully 
 expressed.  Markham brings people and places to rumbling life." The New 
 York Times\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2017/11/24/18804827.php
