Sotomayor will be in conversation with award-winning Chicago author and sociologist of education Dr. Eve L. Ewing. Sotomayor is the award-winning author of four books, including her first children’s book, Just Ask! Be Different, Be Brave, Be You, published in 2019, and will discuss her life, writing, and inspiration behind her latest book, Just Help!
