Pulled Punches

On an express train home to watch Scandal, Isis gets all the elements of her favorite show – drama, passion and heart-stopping suspense when she collides into a professor who dares to swirl into her orbit and take her breath away. A heady mix of Baraka’s Dutchman and the mythos of Isis and the Seven Scorpions, PULLED PUNCHES investigates “identity politics” in the age of being “woke” and well-intentioned. How long should we pull punches before we let them fly?
