Queer Chinese-Australian writer and artist, Mimi Zhu visits Ace New Orleans to discuss their newest book, Be Not Afraid of Love. Join us in Three Keys for a night of poetry and community dialogue, in partnership with The Garden District Book Shop.
Be Not Afraid of Love explores the intersections of love and fear in self-esteem, friendship, family dynamics, and romantic relationships, and extends out to its effects on society and the greater political realm. In sharing their own intimate encounters with oppression, healing, joy, and community, Mimi invites readers to reflect deeply on their own experiences as well, with the intention of acting as a guide to undoing the hurt or uncertainty within them. In this heartrending and revolutionary book, Mimi reminds us, be not afraid of love.
