Can they heal the jagged edges of a traumatic childhood? Is the cost of telling the story worth the price of the cure? \nWith her signature blend of sophistication and raw honesty\, Grande interrogates how living between two nations\, two languages\, and two identities has shaped the woman\, mother\, and writer she has become. Moving from the legacy of violence in her hometown of Iguala\, Mexico\, to a bittersweet family vacation in Europe spent reconciling her own impoverished past with her children鈥檚 world of abundance\, she uncovers startling truths about the nature of survival. \nWhether being racially profiled in the Arizona borderlands or finding unexpected wisdom from the slugs in her garden\, Grande unflinchingly asks: How do we bridge the gap between who we were and who we have become? How do we turn pain into power? When memory threatens to define us\, how can we use story to heal while still honoring our boundaries? \nRegister today for this virtual talk if you identify as a seeker\, a dreamer\, or 鈥渁nyone who believes in the enduring\, transformative power of finding one鈥檚 voice.鈥 URL:/events/calendar/migrant-heart-the-hidden-cost-of-the-american-dream-and-healing-through-storytelling-with-reyna-grande/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Affiliated Event,Diversity,Leadership,Public Events,Speaker,Virtual event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260619T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260619T210000 DTSTAMP:20260609T052351 CREATED:20260330T171410Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260520T191922Z UID:10074485-1781888400-1781902800@www.wcsu.edu SUMMARY:Danbury Juneteenth Celebration 2026 DESCRIPTION:DANBURY JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION 2026: Juneteenth\, celebrated each year on June 19\, commemorates the day in 1865 when enslaved people in Galveston\, Texas\, learned they were finally free 鈥 more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
