* 6:00 PM: The Northwest African American Museum is hosting Regina Mason, the greatx3-grandaughter of William Grimes. Grimes was the subject of Life of William Grimes, the Runaway Slave, the first fugitive slave narrative published in the US. The book has been rereleased through the efforts of Mason and noted scholar William L. Andrews.

* 7:00 PM: Image has new digs and is throwing an Open House to celebrate. Milton Center Fellow Hannah Notess will give a short reading, there will be pastries from Macrina (& I think the new space has an espresso machine), and Image will offer half-price ($20) subscriptions to attendees.

* 7:00 PM: The U-District UW Bookstore hosts Siddharth Kara, author of Sex Trafficking: Inside the Business of Modern Slavery and former investment banker. At first I thought that was odd, but then it clicked, and now makes perfect sense. The business of sex slavery is an uncomfortable subject, and therefore an important one.

* 7:30 PM: Humorist Henry Alford is at Elliott Bay Book Co. to read and sign How to Live: A Search for Wisdom from Old People (While They Are Still On This Earth), a book about death. The Shar-Pei on the cover is adorable. Look at that wrinkly face! Look at that wrinkly butt!
