What is an academic book and how does one go about publishing their first one? In this episode, we are joined by a very special guest and Anzaldúing listener Alejandra Mejía, Assistant Editor at Duke University Press where she acquires books in Latinx History. Ale helps us unravel the mystery of approaching a press, what she looks for in prospective authors, and much more. This one is for our fellow first-gen scholars, we hope it helps you navigate the enigma that is academic publishing!
