Far From The Rooftop of the World: Travels Among Tibetan Refugees on Four Continents

Oct/16/2023 at 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Please join us for a conversation with author Amy Yee as we mark the release of Far From the Rooftop of the World: Travels Among Tibetan Refugees on Four Continents with a foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Introduced by Dr. Vivian Louie, this discussion will explore the ordinary but extraordinary Tibetans and stories of people navigating between worlds and multiple identities; and preserving culture even in exile and amid forced migration. This conversation will be moderated by Ken Roth, with reflections from Tsewang Rigzin, an exiled Tibetan and former deputy director of The Tibet Fund, Dharamshala, India.
