I’m Omowalé-Kétu Oladuwa\, a Poet\, cultural worker\, and lifelong learner. My OctoGenarian Tour celebrates Connection\, employing poetry\, storytelling\, and communal gathering. \nEmerging from a journey of survival\, resistance\, and self-discovery—including five years on death row for a murder I did not commit—I found liberation through poetry in death’s house. My work testifies to the resilience of the hueman spirit\, and the power of art to heal and lift consciousness to face our inhibiting traumas\, and confront the institutions that threaten to erase us.” URL:https://www.downtownithaca.com/event/the-octogenarian-tour-ketu-oladuwa/ LOCATION:Buffalo Street Books\, 215 N.

Jaros DESCRIPTION:Join us for a reading from In My Boots: A Memoir of Five Million Steps Along the Appalachian Trail with local author Amanda K. Jaros. \nAbout the Book: When Amanda K. Jaros learns about the 2\,160-mile Appalachian Trail after college\, she walks away from a sheltered life dominated by an angry and volatile father and does something unexpected: spends six months backpacking. Alone. She expects to pass the time in the solitary and peaceful wilderness\, reflecting on her life’s direction. Instead\, she finds herself part of a community ripe with stinky socks\, buckets of ice cream\, and trail magic. What matters on the trail is not a hiker’s past or parents\, her fears or failures\, but rather\, what matters is the connections we make with each other. \nIn My Boots recounts a challenging physical journey following the trail over the windy balds of the South\, through snowstorms in the Smoky Mountain National Park\, and above the tree line to the alpine zones of the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The journey is also emotionally transformative as this twenty-three-year-old leaves behind the compliant and scared girl she once was. With each step away from her damaged childhood\, each new friend\, each stop in another rural trail town\, she comes to understand that to succeed on the trail\, and in life\, it turns out\, the path she walks must be her own. \nAbout the Author: Amanda K. Jaros is the editor of Labor of Love: A Literary Mama Staff Anthology and author of 100 Things to Do in Ithaca Before You Die. Her essays on nature and family have appeared in Flyway\, Appalachia\, Terrain.org\, Stone Canoe\, and elsewhere. When not writing\, she can be found on a trail somewhere\, and has hiked the Inca Trail in Peru\, several trails in Australia\, and is currently working toward completing hikes of the 46 High Peaks in the Adirondacks. She lives in Ithaca\, New York\, with her husband and son\, where she recently took up kayaking and serves her community as a county legislator.

In STATE OF THE FREE PRESS 2025 (The Censored Press & Seven Stories Press\, December 3\, 2024\, paperback)\, editors Mickey Huff\, Shealeigh Voitl\, and Andy Lee Roth look back on a year in which significant news stories lost out to coverage of celebrities and non-events. Tragically\, 2024 also stands out as the year that the corporate media failed to adequately cover Israel’s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people and the threat it poses to the whole world. With their gaze trained elsewhere\, the powerful got a pass from the very institution that should hold them to account. \nState of the Free Press 2025 comes at a time when trust in the media is at an all-time low. A 2024 Pew Research Poll found that a remarkable 73 percent of adult Americans believe a free press is either extremely or very important to the well-being of society—though only a third of those polled believe that US media are completely free to report news. Half of those surveyed believe that US news organizations are influenced a great deal by corporate/financial or government/political interests. Reporters Without Borders gave the US a score of 66.59 out of a possible 100 points in their 2024 World Press Freedom Index—a drop of nearly five points from 2023. Last year\, the organization labeled US press freedom “satisfactory;” in 2024\, they called it “problematic.” \nMICKEY HUFF is director of Project Censored and president of the Media Freedom Foundation. To date\, he has coedited sixteen volumes of Project Censored’s annual book and contributed numerous chapters to these works dating back to 2008. He is coauthor with Nolan Higdon of United States of Distraction: Media Manipulation in Post-Truth America (And What We Can Do About It) [City Lights Books\, 2019]; and Let’s Agree to Disagree: A Critical Thinking Guide to Communication\, Conflict Management\, and Critical Media Literacy (Routledge\, 2022). He has taught social science\, history\, and journalism at Diablo Valley College since 2000. In 2019\, Huff received the Beverly Kees Educator Award as part of the James Madison Freedom of Information Award from the Society for Professional Journalists\, Northern California. He is also the executive producer and host of The Project Censored Show\, the weekly syndicated public affairs program that airs on more than 50 stations around the U.S. and originates from KPFA Pacifica Radio in Berkeley\, CA. Along with his work with Project Censored\, Huff is the new Distinguished Director of the Park Center of Independent Media at Ithaca College and Professor of Journalism at the college’s Roy H.

The world is nothing like it once was: climate disasters have wracked the continent\, causing food shortages\, ending industry\, and leaving little behind. Then came Cad\, mysterious mind-altering fungi that invade the bodies of the now scattered citizenry. Reid\, a young woman who carries this parasite\, has been given a chance to get away — to move to one of the last remnants of pre-disaster society — but she can’t bring herself to abandon her mother and the community that relies on her. When she’s offered a coveted place on a dangerous and profitable mission\, she jumps at the opportunity to set her family up for life\, but how can Reid ask people to put their trust in her when she can’t even trust her own mind? With keen insight and biting prose\, Premee Mohamed delivers a deeply personal tale in this post-apocalyptic hopepunk novella that reflects on the meaning of community and asks what we owe to those who have lifted us up. \nOn the Move: The Overheating Earth and the Uprooting of America – \nA vivid\, journalistic account of how climate change will make American life as we know it unfeasible. Humanity is on the precipice of a great climate migration\, and Americans will not be spared. Tens of millions of people are likely to be driven from the places they call home. Poorer communities will be left behind\, while growth will surge in the cities and regions most attractive to climate refugees. America will be changed utterly. Abrahm Lustgarten’s On the Move is the definitive account of what this massive population shift might look like. As he shows\, the United States will be rendered unrecognizable by four unstoppable forces: wildfires in the West; frequent flooding in coastal regions; extreme heat and humidity in the South; and droughts that will make farming all but impossible across much of the nation. Reporting from the front lines of climate migration\, Lustgarten explains how a pattern of shortsighted policies encouraged millions to settle in vulnerable parts of the country\, and introduces us to homeowners in California\, insurance customers in Florida\, and ranchers in Colorado who are being forced to make the agonizing choice of when\, not whether\, to leave. Employing the most current climate data and predictive models\, he shows how America’s population will be squeezed northward into a shrinking triangle of land stretching from Tennessee to Maine to the Great Lakes. The places many of us now call home are at risk\, and On the Move reveals how we’ll deal with the consequences.

Robert Lennon with Alexandra Kleeman DESCRIPTION:Join J. Robert Lennon for a reading and conversation with Alexandra Kleeman on his new book\, Buzz Kill. \nAbout the Book: When the shadowy circumstances of a relative’s death are brought to light\, Jane and Lila are plunged into the recesses of an underground drug operation with links to a burgeoning fascist movement. \nThe Pool sisters have gone into business together: a down-home\, if unequal\, PI enterprise. But then Lila receives a shocking piece of news from an old friend of their Aunt Ruth’s: their aunt’s suicide more than a decade earlier might not have been what it seemed. A lawyer\, she had represented a disgraced chemist working on a dangerous synthetic opioid. But once the client\, Travis Nutt\, was poised to lose\, he went rogue and unleashed the adulterant as a street drug\, in conjunction with a shadowy cartel. Can the twins solve the mystery of their aunt’s death and bring this cultlike billionaire to justice? Meanwhile\, Jane has been invited to attend a writers’ conference\, an outlet she relishes until her dangerously confessional prose is seen by the wrong eyes. Her teenage daughter\, Chloe\, becomes the victim of a deepfake video while campaigning for class president and aggressively pursues the instigators\, unaware of the muscle behind them. And old Harry\, Jane’s father\, has stumbled upon a piece of unknown history that opens an unexpected door. \nBuzz Kill is a rambunctious\, kinetic\, elastically braided narrative of a ride that shows J. Robert Lennon is at the height of his powers. \nAbout the Author: J. Robert Lennon is the author of two story collections\, Pieces For The Left Hand and See You in Paradise\, and eight novels\, including Mailman\, Castle\, Familiar\, Broken River\, and most recently\, Hard Girls. He holds an MFA from the University of Montana\, and has published short fiction in The New Yorker\, Harper’s\, Playboy\, Granta\, The Paris Review\, Electric Literature\, and elsewhere. He has been anthologized in Best American Short Stories\, Best American Nonrequired Reading\, and Prize Stories: The O. Henry Awards. His book reviews have appeared in The New York Times Book Review\, The Guardian\, and The London Review of Books\, and he lives in Ithaca\, New York\, where he teaches writing at Cornell University.

Each poem comes in the wake of a deep rupture—the ruptures of mental illness and addiction\, of migration and displacement\, of violence\, familial conflict\, and ecological catastrophe—and yet the speakers engage with despair and playfulness in equal measure\, always allowing humor\, irony\, and the exuberance of contemporary life to bend darkness toward something like hope. Again and again\, Duong’s writing excavates the unnatural conditions of a seemingly natural world\, asking us to pay studied attention to its inhabitants. His poems force us to keep looking: at the betta fish trapped in its mason jar\, the forest choked by invasive kudzu\, the elephant wounded in a landmine blast. Through its relentless scrutiny and exacting care\, this magisterial debut collection poses an impossible question: how can we reconcile a deep love for the world\, in all its buzzing\, wriggling aliveness\, with an equally deep\, self-destructive desire to leave it behind? \nAbout the Author: Steven Duong is a writer from San Diego. He is the author of the debut poetry collection At the End of the World There Is a Pond (W. W. Norton\, 2025). His poems have appeared in the American Poetry Review\, Guernica\, and the Yale Review\, among other publications\, and his short fiction is featured in Catapult\, The Drift\, and The Best American Short Stories 2024. The recipient of fellowships and awards from Kundiman\, the Academy of American Poets\, and the Iowa Writers’ Workshop\, he is currently a creative writing fellow in poetry at Emory University. He lives in Atlanta. \nFarah Bakaari is a PhD candidate in the Department of Literatures in English at Cornell University. Her research focuses on twentieth and twenty-first century African literature\, postcolonial studies\, political theory and the novel as well as the relationship between aesthetics and politics. She was born and raised in Somaliland. URL:https://www.downtownithaca.com/event/at-the-end-of-the-world-there-is-a-pond-steven-duong-with-farah-bakaari/ LOCATION:Buffalo Street Books\, 215 N.
