“My time in Dr. Amelia Montes' capstone class was really transformative for me. It was where I finally felt like was able to come into my own as a scholar of ethnic studies. In her class we read some of the most foundational books from authors like Gloria Anzaldua, James Baldwin, and Toni Morrison. I learned so much, but I also felt like I was given opportunities to teach, which is precisely what I needed in my personal life as I prepared to graduate.”
