Paola Ramos investigative curiosity is in full display in this narrative. It is hard to understand many of the topics she touches, yet, after her explanations, it opens up my mind to understanding how we got here. I enjoy her lessons on social media (ironically, as she mentions is how many Hispanics get their news). But we need more voices like her talking to the people. I loved the book and it is my favorite book of my non-fiction reads for 2024.
