Author’s work explores the intricacies of immigration
Author Patricia Engel. By Barbara Gutierrez

Associate Professor Patricia Engel’s latest book, “Infinite Country,” was picked as the March selection by Reese Witherspoon for her reading community, Reese’s Book Club.
As she was growing up, Patricia Engel remembers her paternal grandmother Lucía, the mother of nine children, writing everyday volumes and volumes of stories, poetry, and long letters to her family. Lucia’s work was never published but her devotion to writing was treated as a sacred act by everyone around her.
“It was from her that I learned to have a personal writing practice even if you don’t publish or share your work,” said Engel. “Just write for the love of the act of writing.”

Ijeoma Oluo – author of the New York Times best-seller “So You Want to Talk About Race” – joined University of Miami staff and students on Feb. 18 as the featured guest for this semester’s One Book, One U program. A virtual event, Oluo spoke to over 400 attendees, offering advice on how universities can engage in anti-racist work on their campuses.
Launched in 2017 by professors Chantel Acevedo and Osamudia James, the One Book, One U program seeks to promote conversations about race, diversity and inclusion. Following last year’s protests and political unrest, the selection committee decided now is the time to demand an explicit discussion of race and deliberate efforts towards racial justice and equity.
