But Why Tho? - Kate Snchez
Nov 11, 2019La Voz de M.A.Y.Ois a must-read graphic novel. It tells an important story, writing M.A.Y.O back into the history of Arizona and of the U.S. By including original newsletters from the organization in the closing pages, Barajas allows you to read the history yourself in tandem with his retelling of his Tata's history. This is a graphic novel that should be taught in history courses at all levels; it's a piece of history to read on your own and it's a story to share and keep alive. Read Full Review
