ALL THE BEST WAYS.
MADLY IN LOVE WITH HIM.
AS I’VE BEEN SAYING, IT SORT
OF -- NOTHING ELSE MATTERS
ANYMORE.
ANYMORE. BUT ALSO, EVERYTHING ELSE
MATTERS THAT MUCH MORE.
>> YOU’RE RIGHT.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT WHEN HALEY
CAME, I WAS THINKING SHE WAS A
GREAT ERASER OF PAIN.
SHE CAME INTO LIFE AND JUST MADE
IT SNAP INTO FOCUS.

HIS EYES, BUT ALSO, THE WORLD HE

LAST SEASON. BUT YOU KNOW, NOTHING IS EVER
STRAIGHTFORWARD WITH AMY AND

GINA RODRIGUEZ IS DIRECTING ON
"JANE THE VIRGIN."
SEE
SEE WE SEE EACH OTHER DOING IT AND
IT INSPIRES US.
IT’S A LOT OF HARD WORK AND IT’S
SOMETIMES SCARY.
SOMETIMES SCARY. BUT WHEN YOU SEE OTHERS TAKING
THAT STEP, YOU GO FOR IT.
>> IS IT TRICKY BECAUSE THEY’RE
YOUR COLLEAGUES?
YOUR COLLEAGUES? NOW, I’M THE TEACHER AND YOU
NEED TO STAND OVER THERE.

YOU HAVE TO ASK THEM.

KIND OF A COMPILATION OF
STORIES.
STORIES. TELL US ABOUT THAT.

LIKE ME."
LIKE ME." AND IT IS A DREAM COME TRUE FOR
ME.
ME. I GREW UP NEVER SEEING MY
EXPERIENCE OF BEING AMERICAN IN
THE CULTURE.
THE CULTURE. I AM WHOLLY AMERICAN, FULLY
AMERICAN, AND YET, IN
EXTRICKIBLYEXTRICK
EXTRICKIBLYEXTRICK INEXTRICABLY RINKED TO MY
FAMILY’S ROOTS IN ANOTHER
COUNTRY.
COUNTRY. I FELT ALONE AND ISOLATED IN
THAT EXPERIENCE, UNTIL I GREW UP
AND REALIZED, THAT IS SO MANY
PEOPLE’S AMERICAN EXPERIENCE.
AND IT’S LACKING IN THE CULTURAL
NARRATIVE.
NARRATIVE. I WANTED TO DO THIS BOOK AND NOT
JUST TELL MY OWN STORY.
BUT INVITE 30SOME-SOME OF MY
FAVORITE PEOPLE.
FAVORITE PEOPLE. JUST WONDERFUL -- WONDERFUL
PEOPLE TO TELL THEIR STORY SO
THAT YOUNG PEOPLE CAN LOOK AT A
BOOK AND SEE THEIR OWN
EXPERIENCE REFLECTED BACK AT
THEM BY PEOPLE WHO ARE AWESOME,
MAKING CULTURE TODAY.
