Finished this yesterday! It was outstanding and has become one of my favorite books! Mojica Rodriguez handles so many topics so well, such as racism in academic, toxic family dynamics, and the journey to accepting oneself amidst discrimination and trauma. It was incredibly well-written and engaging. It‘s an important read for diverse individuals. I love how authentic she is in her journey and the innumerable problems that exist for BIPOC globally.
