An Evening Celebrating Alejandra Pizarnik at the Hispanic Society. Join us for an evening of poetry and discussion celebrating the work of Argentinian poet Alejandra Pizarnik. This program is presented in partnership with the Feria Internacional del Libro en Español (FILNYC).
Book Presentation with Jonathan Goldman. Join the Hispanic Society for a conversation with Jonathan Goldman on the Puerto Rican experience in 1920s New York. In Hidden Histories of Jazz Age: New York: From the Suppressed to the Strange, Jonathan Goldman offers a fresh look at 1920s New York City. Jonathan Ezra Goldman’s whirlwind tour of early 1920s New York City visits an all-female police platoon, a Black amusement park shut down before it opened, an Arabic literary salon, socialist Puerto Rican cigar factories, Chinatown funerals, lesbian cafes, overcrowded jails, toxic dumps, and Ku Klux Klan recruitment offices.
