From Havana to Chapel Hill: A Latina's Search for Home
Dr. Rosa Perelmuter
In this presentation, UNC-Chapel Hill Professor and Michigan alumna Rosa Perelmuter takes us on a journey through the questions of identity and belonging with which she has wrestled since she was born in Cuba to Eastern European Jewish immigrants.
Exiled in the U.S. at age 13 as a product of the Peter Pan Airlift, she reflects on the outsider status that first manifested itself in Cuba and the various shapes it took in Miami, Boston, Ann Arbor, and finally North Carolina.
