Description

  • What does it mean for two Latinas to participate in Miss USA pageants? How does an EPA employee dedicated to the fighting for environmental protections navigate a workplace where she's now expected to find rationales to reverse regulations?
  • How does a law professor, herself a victim of sexual assault, write a letter of recommendation for a student to work for a judge accused of sexual misconduct?
  • How do a Trump supporting father-in-law and his Latina daughter-in-law come together to survive a raging wildfire?
  • What does a college-bound eighteen-year-old girl do when she finds herself pregnant and living in a state where she doesn't have access to abortion?
Murray's stories magnify and make real the hidden dialogue of society. Readers are left to grapple with the implications and ramifications of the policies and attitudes pervasive in the United States today and question what it means for the future.
