What does language mean to you? Are words just arbitrary sounds that we've assigned meaning? When does language uplift us? And similarly, when does language shun us? Stay tuned as The Grind Co-Managing Editor Kyla Figueroa shares an intimate reading of her story "Somewhere in the Grey," and talks about cultural imposter syndrome, language, and culture.
"When I was about five and my parents signed me and my siblings up for the local soccer league, I told them I wanted to be goalie. To me, a child filled with romantic fantasies, I would be a star – the only person on the field who could touch the ball with their hands, who dived and jumped and blocked soccer balls going at monstrous speed, who saved the day by catching a game-deciding penalty kick."
