DESCRIPTION:Witness 2017-2020 chronicles four years of troubles, shootings, wildfires, 
 racial reckoning, planetary murder, plague, monumental lies, crazy 
 delusions, me-too, an uprising for justice, and more. But a failed 
 far-right insurrection had to be the capstone of these terrible times, and 
 the nation is not done yet. What was once unfamiliar and strange ("flatten 
 the curve") has become common, even banal, demanding a poem. Language has 
 to keep up, and Hilton Obenzinger presents a powerful testimony.\n\nHilton 
 Obenzinger writes poetry, fiction, history, and criticism. His books 
 include This Passover or the Next I Will Never be in Jerusalem, which 
 received the American Book Award. His autobiographical novel Busy Dying 
 recounts, among other things, his participation in the student revolt at 
 Columbia University in 1968. Recent works include How We Write: The 
 Varieties of Writing Experience and Treyf Pesach [Unholy Passover]. Born in 
 Brooklyn, he graduated Columbia University in 1969, taught nursery and 
 elementary school, ran an offset press at a community print shop in San 
 Francisco's Mission District, worked as a commercial writer for business 
 and industry, and taught writing, literature and American Studies at 
 Stanford University. He is currently Associate Director of the Chinese 
 Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford.\n\nAttendance is 
 limited. Masks and vaccination cards required.\n
