Missed Translations: An Online Conversation with Sopan Deb

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join Sopan for an online conversation about the silence and ignorance that separate us, and the blood and stories that connect us.

His latest book, Missed Translations, beautifully and poignantly chronicles his odyssey and raises the essential questions: Is it ever too late to pick up the pieces and offer forgiveness? How do we build bridges where there was nothing before—and what happens to us, to our past and our future, if we don’t?

Sopan Deb is a writer for the New York Times, as well as a New York City-based standup comedian. Before joining the Times, Deb was one of a handful of reporters who covered Donald Trump’s presidential campaign from start to finish as a campaign embeds for CBS News. He covered hundreds of rallies in more than 40 states for a year and a half and was named a “breakout media star” of the election by Politico. He won an Edward R. Murrow award for a documentary he produced for The Boston Globe called Larger Than Life, which told the story about the NBA Hall of Famer Bill Russell’s complicated relationship with the city of Boston. Deb lives in New York City.
