Provocative and inspiring essays on America and the world by Jennie S. Bev. She is an award-winning author, columnist, former professor, and serial entrepreneur based in Silicon Valley, California.

In a way, Bev is a literary opposite of Stockton native Maxine Hong Kingston, who wrote about being trapped between American culture and the wrenchingly different ways her Chinese immigrant parents. Cultural dislocation empowers Bev.
