The new exhibit highlights more than 30 writers from a wide range of backgrounds and literary traditions, the exhibit uses intimate video conversations to illuminate ideas of home and belonging. The stories told in the exhibit are universal and explore the human condition.
"There is no America without outsiders. Call us pilgrims, slaves, refugees, exiles, immigrants, even tourists - we all, directly or indirectly, come from somewhere else. As a nation, the glue tying us together is the shared sense of destiny we nurture and the conviction that somehow this place is different, unlike any other, even exceptional, and that here we may finally breathe free." - Ilan Stavans
