Author Eddie Ahn discusses his new graphic memoir, Advocate: A Graphic Memoir of Family, Community, and the Fight for Environmental Justice.
Born in Texas to Korean immigrants, Eddie grew up working at his family’s store with the weighty expectations that their sacrifices would be paid off when he achieved the “American Dream.” Years later after moving to San Francisco and earning a coveted law degree, he then does the unthinkable: he rejects a lucrative legal career to enter the nonprofit world.
Presented by San Francisco Public Library
