Y’all. My story “It Snows Year-Round Here” which is about dealing with whiteness & racism in higher education was just published in the Journal of Latinos and Education. I advocated to publish it open access so you can read it for FREE—go read it & share! https://t.co/ogDE8oWJhW
Y’all want a sneak peek of my next book? My chapter/story “Universities ain’t what they seem like on TV” that is about racism in higher education was published in Writers: Craft & Context, which is an open-access journal. So you can read my story for FREE! https://t.co/64Rdgi7A1W
This year Mente had the privilege of awarding a scholarship to 20 individual students.
