A special collaboration between Bushwick Book Club Oakland and the Bay Area Book Fest.

BBCO Artist, Tristan Marcelle, opens for a panel featuring Kate Gale, Hannah Moushabeck, Phoebe Robinson, and Cynthia Leitich Smith. Moderated by María Mínguez Arias.

To write an inclusive future, we must publish diverse voices who represent our collective interests and stories. The publishers and imprints represented in this headliner panel will discuss the implications of the current political climate on the future of publishing and put forward creative solutions to the lack of opportunities for publishing underrepresented stories.
