“Professor Sandoval was Harvard’s first Latina tenured professor and an absolute star on campus. Her hair was shiny, curly, and black. Her skin was a deep warm brown and she had the tiniest, sparkliest diamond in her nose. One of the most iconic things about Ruby Sandoval is that she wore leather pants, and often. Nothing about it was vulgar, they looked as demure as a pair of Anne Taylor slacks but they were decidedly not Anne Taylor slacks. She was a Latina with a full professorship and she wore perfectly tailored Italian leather pants. It said something. She wasn’t here to lie low.”

“My uncle’s death confirmed all of my grandfather’s fears about himself and his place in the family. He could not protect. He could not provide. Emasculation at the hands of the state is a very cunning thing for the state to do because men will never see it coming from the state. They’ll blame the subjects in their own kingdoms, the women and children to whom they are lords. The only people to whom they are lords.”
