Esperanza Gomez-johnny Sins In American Daydreams -
She smirks, hands him a brush, and says: “Then let’s build a better daydream.”
A massive, city-funded redevelopment project threatens to bulldoze an entire historic block—including the heart of Esperanza’s community and her most ambitious mural yet.
