Everyone has a story about where they come from. If you knew you could die tomorrow what stories, messages and learnings would you want to leave for your loved ones? This book is an unapologetically honest and raw account of a working-class first-generation immigrant along with advice for my future child on the two main issues at play which they will likely encounter from the moment they enter this world: gender and race. Throughout my life, I have moved a total of 15 times. I've seen a lot and experienced a great deal of disparity between what we're told society should function like, and the way it works in reality. This book is written for and as if speaking with my future child. I hope you read this with the vulnerability, love and compassion with which it was created.
