Every girl who wants to be a marine biologist should have this book." -Hope Jahren, New York Times bestselling author of Lab Girl and The Story of MoreSharks have been on this planet for over 400 million years, so there is a lot they can teach us about survival and adaptability. For example- how do sharks, which unlike other fish are denser than water, stay afloat? They keep moving. When Jasmin Graham, an award-winning young shark scientist, started to feel that the traditional path to becoming a marine biologist was pulling her under, she remembered this important lesson- keep moving forward.If navigating the choppy waters of traditional academic study was no longer worth it, then that meant creating an ocean of her own. Jasmin joined with three other Black women to form Minorities in Shark Sciences (MISS), an organization dedicated to providing support and opportunities for other young women of color. She became an independent researcher- a rogue shark scientist, seeking ways to keep these extraordinary endangered creatures swimming free-just like her.Sharks Dont Sink is a riveting, moving, and ultimately triumphant memoir at the intersection of science and social justice- a guidebook to how we can all learn to respect and protect some of natures most misunderstood and vulnerable creatures-and grant the same grace to ourselves.
