Cartoonist Thi Bui will discuss her award-winning graphic memoir, “The Best We Could Do,” which explores the anguish of immigration and the lasting effects that displacement has on a child and her family. Bui’s memoir chronicles her family’s daring escape after the fall of South Vietnam in the 1970s, and the difficulties they faced building new lives for themselves.
