Queer Chinese-Australian writer and artist, Mimi Zhu visits Ace Toronto to discuss their newest book, Be Not Afraid of Love.
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.
**Please bring personal books. Limited copies onsite.
