Through a collective reading of Jamie Ford’s poignant novel, “Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet,” students will engage in discussions that connect literary themes with real-life experiences of the Japanese American community. Join us for a transformative journey through history, literature, and community exploration.
