The Virginia Museum of History & Culture is hosting a conversation with Beth Macy on Tuesday, Nov. 14 at 6 p.m. at the VMHC.

The bestselling author will discuss her book, Raising Lazarus: Hope, Justice, and the Future of America’s Overdose Crisis. Her first book, Dopesick, chronicled the origins of the opioid epidemic — her newest novel shines a light on the people advocating for and providing lifesaving care as well as possible solutions for addressing the crisis.
