Weekend Giveaway: NEVERTHELESS, WE PERSISTED

María Cristina García lives in New York with her favorite spouse, her favorite toddler, her favorite cat, and her second-favorite cat. When not ranking members of her household, she's catching up on Supergirl, strumming her mandolin, or trying to beat the clock on her library loans. Twitter: @MeowyCristina Blog: MeowyCristina.com

This giveaway of Nevertheless, We Persisted is sponsored by Penguin Random House.

A powerful collection of essays from actors, athletes, politicians, musicians, writers, and teens, including actress Alia Shawkat, poet Azure Antoinette, and many more, each writing about a time when they were held back because of their race, gender, or sexual identity—but persisted. What made them rise up through the hate? How did they break out of society’s limited view of who they are and build the beautiful and hard-won lives they live today? With a foreword by Minnesota senator and up-and-coming Democratic party leader Amy Klobuchar, these essays share deeply personal stories of resilience, faith, love, and, yes, persistence.
