#ScribdChat: Meet Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jose Antonio Vargas
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Scribd Headquarters
(see times)
Please join us for a special ScribdChat with journalist, filmmaker, and the founder and CEO of Define American, Jose Antonio Vargas in conversation with Anna Sale, host of popular WNYC podcast Death, Sex & Money.
In 2011, Jose Antonio Vargas became America’s best-known undocumented immigrant when The New York Times Magazine published his story about his life in the United States after arriving from the Philippines in 1993 at the age of twelve. By coming out publicly as undocumented, he was risking everything he had built in the United States. Now, with the national debate over immigration at a fever pitch, Vargas examines not only the facts of immigration but also the searing emotional reality of living for twenty-five years as a contributing member of a country that does not consider him one of its own, in Dear America: Notes of an Undocumented Citizen.
Attendance is free and refreshments will be served. The first 60 Scribd subscribers to arrive will be gifted a FREE copy of DEAR AMERICA. If you are not yet a Scribd subscriber, you will have the opportunity to sign up for free at the event.
