It's kind of a documentation of the two waves of expulsion in 2009 and 2020 and 2021. And the kind of behind the scenes of the campaign that took place, the diplomatic and media campaign and grassroots campaign that took place to save our homes. And it's also an exploration of other...

my experiences that is like super that is super dignified that kind of kicks its feet up on the table and says what it wants unabashedly because you know we are told not only are we going to be victimized but we are going to be polite in our suffering and i want to reject that completely and i want to lean into the humor of the past few years of my life because i think that's really what the world needs and what i need to be writing
