DESCRIPTION:Endangered Species, Enduring Values is a new anthology of prose, poetry and 
 four-color artwork by over sixty San Francisco area writers and artists of 
 color. It presents a compelling snapshot by and of the city’s majority 
 minority, who now comprise 58% of the residents in the nation’s most 
 diverse and progressive metropolis.​\n\n​It includes stories like 
 these: a dark-skinned South Indian physician learns to protect himself from 
 security guards in his own hospital, The Black Women Is God art exhibition 
 affirms a suicide survivor’s healing, an Iranian immigrant recalls a 
 school-day bombing in her homeland, and a Filipino Black poet and activist 
 carries on his family legacy.\n\n​According to editor Shizue Seigel, the 
 book's title, Endangered Species, Enduring Values, refers to people all 
 over the world, of every race and culture, who are losing their connection 
 to the places, histories, values, and traditions that shaped societies over 
 millennia. San Francisco’s residents of color, a significant but largely 
 silent majority, draw strength from their heritage not only to survive but 
 to thrive—through compassion and collaboration rather than competition." 
 Seigel gathered over 70 people of all ages and walks of life to respond 
 artistically to these questions: \n\n​• In challenging times, how do 
 heritage, history, or spirituality inspire you as a person of color?\n\n• 
 What sustains you and keeps you working for a just and inclusive 
 society?\n\n• What do you want the world to understand about your 
 heritage or community?\n\nNo admission charge.\n
