VIRTUAL: Live on Zoom!

Masha Rumer presents Parenting with an Accent and
Alina Adams presents My Mother's Secret: A Novel of the Jewish Autonomous Region

Award-winning authors Alina Adams and Masha Rumor join together on our virtual events stage to present their latest works, writing history as it happens. While Alina's latest novel, My Mother's Secret: A Novel of the Jewish Autonomous Region, covers a little known aspect of recent history, Masha's latest memoir, Parenting with an Accent, provides insights into multicultural dating, raising bilingual kids, dealing with discrimination, and more. Their writing overlaps in examining intergenerational trauma, including in the former Soviet Union, and how it has affected generations of immigrants in the U.S. & how Russia’s war in Ukraine is impacting families around the world, including the writers' own families. Join Masha & Alina for what is sure to be a candid and empathetic discussion on topics relevant to anyone who is an immigrant or who teaches, works with, or is related to immigrants.
