Beyond the Headlines in Ivory Coast
Tuesday, January 18 at 7pm / Urbana Free Library

Writer Carol Spindel has been traveling to the west African country of 
Ivory Coast (Cote d'Ivoire) for thirty years and has formed a strong 
connection with the people of one village in the northern part of the 
country . She returned in October and November to witness the first 
round of the landmark elections, which have left the country in turmoil.

Join
 us for an informative evening where we get past the headlines:  Spindel
 will show some of her beautiful photos of the people of Ivory Coast, 
will reflect on how the political crisis affects ordinary people, and 
will help us make sense of the recent tumultuous elections. 

Carol
 Spindel is the author of essays, articles, book reviews, and two books 
of creative nonfiction. In the Shadow of the Sacred Grove, a New York 
Times Notable Book, is a memoir of the year she spent living in a 
village in Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa.  Dancing at Halftime is an 
exploration of how American sports teams use imaginary American Indian 
warriors as mascots.
