One Book Dittmar Dialogues: Leaving and Losing New Orleans
Thursday, Oct.7, 2021
 5:30-7:00 pm.
Dittmar Gallery in the Norris Center

Join us for a buffett dinner and discussion with Northwestern History professor, Leslie M. Harris. Harris  left New Orleans behind at age 18.  It's a city that has fascinated so many, but one where she felt she couldn't thrive.  Still, she had always imagined it would be there for her--until Hurricane Katrina in 2005.   What does it mean for a child to turn her back on her hometown? What does it mean for a nation to lose a city?  Professor Harris will  discuss, what it means to lose your home due to  the impact of a natural disaster. Registration required. Space is limited. Must be vaccinated to attend.

This event is co-sponsored by the Dittmar Galleries and Northwestern HIstory Department.
