SUMMARY:Minneapolis - Minnesota Writers Series: American Precariat
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the March 2024 edition of the Minnesota Writers Series as we welcome Zeke Caligiuri\, Chris Fausto\, and Fong Lee\, three editors of the anthology “American Precariat: Parables of Exclusion\,” published by Coffee House Press. Through readings and discussions\, the editors will share the genesis of the anthology\, and the importance of bringing to light the stories of those society deems invisible and chooses to exclude. The editors will be joined by Mike Alberti\, executive director of the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop\, who will moderate the discussion. \nZeke\, Chris\, and Fong will be available for book signing and further conversation after the event. “American Precariat: Parables of Exclusion” will be available for purchase from Subtext Books at the event. \nThis event will take place at the Capri Theater in North Minneapolis and is presented in partnership with the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop (MPWW)\, which connects incarcerated individuals to arts and educational programming and fosters a creative community of writers both within and outside of prisons and correctional facilities. \nAbout the Book\nThis groundbreaking anthology of essays edited by incarcerated writers takes a sharp look at the complexity and fluidity of class and caste systems in the United States. Featuring accounts that include gig work as a delivery driver\, homelessness among trans youth\, and life with immense student loan debt\, in addition to transcripts of insightful discussions between the editors\, “American Precariat” demonstrates how various and often invisible extreme instability can be. With the understanding that widespread recognition of collective precarity is an urgent concern\, the anthology situates each individual portrait within societal structures of exclusion\, scarcity\, and criminality.  \nAbout the Editors\nZeke Caligiuri is a writer and activist from South Minneapolis. He is the author of “This is Where I Am\,” published by University of Minnesota Press. He has won multiple awards through the PEN Prison Writing Contest and is the co-founder of the Stillwater Writer’s Collective\, the first all-prisoner created and facilitated collective in the country. He is a contributor to “The Sentences That Create Us: Crafting a Writer’s Life in Prison” as well as “School\, Not Jail: How Educators Can Disrupt School Pushout and Mass Incarceration.” He is directly impacted by over two decades of incarceration and is now currently the re-entry education coordinator for the Minnesota Justice Research Center re-investing in the humanization of those still stuck within the captivity business. \nChris Fausto Cabrera is a multi-genre artist\, writer & activist recently released from incarceration after 21 years. His work has appeared in: The Colorado Review\, The Antioch Review\, Puerto del Sol\, The Woodward Review\, among others. “The Parameters of Our Cage\,” his prose epistle project with photographer Alec Soth is released through MACK books. His latest project is “American Precariat: Parables of Exclusion” where he serves as an editor\, published by Coffee House Press. Cabrera co-founded The Stillwater Writers Collective\, partnered with the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop. He works closely with Until We Are All Free and We Are All Criminals to bring attention to the multifaceted ways justice impacts people. \nFong Lee is a Saint-Paul-based artist and We Are All Criminal’s first Storytelling Fellow. Fong spent nearly 18 years inside Minnesota State prisons; he is a celebrated poet\, with publications through the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop and Asian American Writers Workshop\, a beloved painter\, and a published photographer. Fong is a restorative justice practitioner and the Storytelling Curator with The Legal Revolution. Fong and his family immigrated to the U.S. as Hmong refugees when Fong was a child\, after his family was displaced from their home in Laos. His experience and expertise with incarceration and displacement enable him to make We Are All Criminals all the more dynamic\, including strengthening the collaborations between inside and outside artistic partners. \nAbout the Moderator\nMike Alberti has been an administrator for MPWW since 2016\, when he graduated from the University of Minnesota with his MFA in Creative Writing. Mike’s fiction has been published in many venues\, and his first book\, “Some People Let You Down\,” won the 2020 Katherine Anne Porter Prize in Short Fiction.
