Through the extensive and expansive works of multi-hyphenate writers and critics Myriam Gurba and Wendy C. Ortiz, we are shown that the interior is exterior, dreams are as much reality as reality is a dream, and as the personal is political, so too is the political personal. Their praxes remind us that being comfortable can be a dull project and that critique can be an act of care.
