In English with simultaneous interpretation into Creole

Fieldwork, immersion, interviews, and archival research: Award-winning writer Edwidge Danticat, author of The Art of Death, and award-winning foreign correspondent Jacqueline Charles will discuss the role of research in their writing. How do they balance library research and lived experience? How do they make history and facts interesting? What are the possibilities for harm, inaccuracy, or success? Our keynote speakers will debate their methods and the ethics around their search for emotional, cultural, historical, and geographical accuracy.


Edwidge Danticat ak Jacqueline Charles an Konvèsasyon

An angle avèk entèpretasyon nan lang kreyòl
Travay sou teren, eksperyans entansif, entèvyou, ak rechèch nan achiv: Edwidge Danticat, ki se otè The Art of Death, ak jounalis Miami Herald, Jacqueline Charles, pral diskite ki wòl rechèch jwe lè y ap ekri. Kijan yo balanse rechèch nan bibliyotèk ak eksperyans lavi? Kijan yo fè fiksyon ak resi toutbon vin enteresan? Ki risk ki genyen pou yo fè moun ditò, pou yo pa di bagay yo jan yo ye a, e ki estrateji ki pèmèt yo fè bon travay? Nou envite konferansye sa yo fè deba sou metòd yo, epitou sou etik ki antoure rechèch yo fè pou bay enfòmasyon kòrèk onivo emosyonèl, kiltirèl, istorik, ak jeyografik.
