The Skin We're In

The focus on one year makes the struggles and victories feel immediate and personal. I'm curious if this was a conscious choice to highlight a specific moment in time or if it evolved during writing.

The stories of activism are inspiring but also painfully real. I wonder how readers with different backgrounds connect emotionally to these moments.

Listening to the author's own narration added a layer of intimacy, but did it make the messages feel more urgent or personal for others?
