I know this country normalizes it, but it's wild that in order to get my blood pressure or my cholesterol checked, I have to pay hundreds of dollars in premiums every month, another $30 for each visit, agree to arbitration, and relinquish my right to a jury trial.

I’ve been working with a project idea for a long time (including doing tons of research), and now pressure has materialized the idea into drafts. Next month, I’ll start sharing the work here as it will be part of The Fresno 15 fundraiser alongside Juan Felipe Herrera and Hermelinda Hernandez.
