Cheza Nami is excited to partner with Washington Osiro to bring educational and interactive programs about African culture to the local community.

He has done multiple readings at the Oakland Public Library and spoken at San Jose’s Yerba Buena High School.  He published his first book in 2013: Wuodha: My Journey from Kenya to These United States and has written three other books since then. In this program, Osiro will read excerpts from his book and take questions from attendees. And for viewing will be a traveling suitcase displaying cultural African artifacts.

The main points of the session are to underscore the diversity of the U.S. and the World in general, the challenges that migrants face when moving from one culture to another, and the possibilities that are available in a new environment/culture with open mindedness and acceptance of change.
