How can we navigate academic spaces to learn about our history?    Monica Gonzalez is an 18 year old aspiring poet. She takes inspiration from her grandmother, who encouraged her to always be herself and find freedom in that. Monica uses poetry to express herself and her identity, and uses her work to expose the myth of reality.
