Ernesto Mané | Before the Beginning: Uncovering Home and Heritage across the Atlantic

Before the Beginning is Ernesto Mané's powerful account of traveling from Brazil to Guinea-Bissau to meet the paternal family he never knew. It is a journey that reshapes his understanding of identity, race, and belonging. Blending memoir, travel diary, and essay, Mané reflects on the legacies of colonialism and diaspora while searching for his own time zero, the point where a fractured life can begin again. --- Event Details: https://my.princeton.edu/rsvp?id=1972018
