This month, TUL is honored to host Bouchaib Gadir for the third Lunch Tray Series: Noontime Poetry at the Library event on Friday, August 27, 2021 at 12pm.

More about Bouchaib Gadir:
Dr. Bouchaib Gadir is a professor at Tulane University and an American poet from Moroccan descent. His poems "tell stories about immigrants, displaced and marginalized, in New Orleans, Spain, and France... [and] display of mixed emotion, loneliness, and marginalization felt by migrants with a sense of belonging to a host land or to their native cultures."
