About this Event
Celebrate the pre-release of Waking Up Ghosts by local author, Dr. Christine J. Hong! Get your hands on an exclusive, early copy before publication date and stick around for a conversation between Christine and Dr. Lahronda Welch Little, mystic, healer, and author of the new book, Lessons from the Garden: African Spirituality, Health, and Holistic Practice.
About the book: Since childhood, Christine J. Hong has experienced ancestral hauntings: voices, presences, and memories that carry both sorrow and care. In her debut book, Waking Up Ghosts, she charts her journey into Korean indigenous beliefs and practices that her family, like many diasporic Koreans, abandoned in favor of Christianity. She invites us to reimagine ancestral practice, confront the ruptures of war, displacement, and conversion, and shift into a spirituality that makes room for grief and liberation.
