This is a fantastic collection of stories that explore a wide breadth of experiences and emotions. It's extremely powerful and I wish more people would read it, particularly young people. These stories are invaluable to widening your understanding, deepening empathy, the whole nine.
This is a great collection of essays from a diverse group of authors. I wish more people would read about immigrant experiences.
I wish I could give this book 1000 stars! It was really good. Will be recommending it to everyone forever.
26 thought provoking and insightful essays on the immigrant experience in North America. I love how diverse this collection is and most of the writers talk about their own understanding and experience of being an immigrant. The editors did a brilliant job bringing such diverse voices to the table. It made me reflect on my own experience of being an immigrant and pushed me to pen down my thoughts on the same.

i’m not the biggest fan of short story collections- some of these were really great and some were just mediocre- would give it a 3.5 ⭐️ if i could
An excellent and timely read--hard to pick favorite essays from this incredible group of writers.
No lo empecé adrede como forma de "educarme" en tiempos de BLM pero ha acabado siendo precisamente eso: didáctico y muy interesante. Hay algunos muy periodísticos, otros de crónica histórica y, mis preferidos, los autobiográficos. Algunos de estos últimos tienen un estilo muy bonito. El relato sobre la familia musulmana es descorazonador.
