“I have never chosen a meal, a book, or a quiet hour. I would like to try all three.”
Yuna has clapped on cue since she could stand. She has never seen a supermarket or a ballot that offered a second name. She wants a room with a door that closes, a job that pays in something other than fear, and the ordinary American right to be unimpressive in public. She does not need a speech. She needs a seat on the swap.
