Art by Afreen Majumdar Wendy Carrillo and I sit down at two lawn chairs, and marigolds - in celebration of the upcoming Dia de Los Muertos - lined the fence behind us. The mid-October sun is beginning to near the end of its day’s path across the sky, and a big, fluffy dog, tongue hanging out of her mouth, lies at our feet. The conversation of people mingling (either by a stand from a small business or lounging in a circle a couple feet away) and Bad Bunny fills the backyard.
