\nSay organizers:<\/p>\n

The forum’s purpose is to enhance cross-border communication and consider broader questions of identity in the age of globalization. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I had a few problems<\/a> with Graves’ premise when it came out. Still, as a conversational catalyst, her piece can’t be beat. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
