In her new book\, Pushed: Miners\, a Merchant\, and (Maybe) a Massacre\, Stehekin author Ana Maria Spagna explores the so-called Chelan Falls Massacre. In this talk\, Spagna will describe her research into the event including encounters with historians\, archaeologists\, Indigenous elders\, migrant workers\, and descendants of “Gold Mountain sojourners.” She will explore the phenomena of historically ignored and “fake” massacres in an attempt to discover what really happened to these Chinese miner\, as well as examine contemporary xenophobia in our region. \nAna Maria Spagna is the author\, most recently\, of PUSHED: Miners\, a Merchant and (Maybe) a Massacre. Her previous books include Uplake: Restless Essays of Coming and Going\, Reclaimers\, stories of elder women reclaiming sacred land and water\, Test Ride on the Sunnyland Bus\, winner of the River Teeth literary nonfiction prize\, 100 Skills You’ll Need for the End of the World (as We Know It) a humor-infused exploration of how to live more lightly on the planet\, as well as a middle-grade novel\, The Luckiest Scar on Earth\, and a poetry chapter\, Mile Marker Six. Ana Maria’s work has also been recognized by the Society for Environmental Journalists\, and as a four-time finalist for the Washington State Book Award. She lives in Stehekin\, Washington with her wife\, Laurie. \nFor more information click here.
