James Murua

This week’s spotlight is Percival Everett, the author of numerous novels, short story collections, poetry, children’s literature, and other forms. He is also a Distinguished Professor of English at the University of SouthernCalifornia (USC). He has shown his love for humanity by appending his signature to the Israel Boycott Pledge, which has been signed by many. He also showed his love for non-humans with his herd of mules, horses, and donkeys on his 14-acre ranch in Moreno Valley, California, where he did farm work and found inspiration for his writing.
