Back to All Events
Join us for a powerful evening with Raymond Santana, activist, entrepreneur, and one of the Exonerated Five, as he shares his new book Pushing Hope: An Illustrated Memoir of Survival. This moving YA graphic memoir chronicles Santana’s journey from wrongful incarceration as a teenager through his fight for justice and healing, offering an unflinching yet deeply inspiring story of resilience and hope for teens and adults alike.
Santana will be joined by acclaimed illustrator Keith Henry Brown, whose evocative artwork brings the narrative to life with depth and emotion. Together, they will discuss the making of the book, the role of art in storytelling, and the power of hope in the face of adversity.
