'Solito' author Javier Zamora will speak Wednesday at Linfield University on migration, identity, and memory * Oregon ArtsWatch
"The publication of Zamora's memoir, which tells the story of his 1999 crossing into the U.S. as a 9-year-old, has garnered significant media attention."
"Zamora's contributions to discussions around borders and migration reflect his personal experiences, making him a relevant voice amidst current social issues."
Linfield University hosts LAB - Learning Across Boundaries, focusing on borders and transitions. Salvadoran poet Javier Zamora, acclaimed for his memoir 'Solito,' exemplifies this theme. His work recounts his own journey across borders as a child and highlights issues of immigration, making his participation timely amid rising deportation threats. The event marks Zamora's ongoing influence in addressing political and personal narratives surrounding migration.
