# K.A. Cobell and Andrew Joseph White: Presumed Guilty

What can an outsider teen do against systemic oppression? Miles is carrying his family’s cycle of cruelty, and his attempts to break out are met with brutality in Andrew Joseph White’s “Compound Fracture.” In K.A. Cobell’s “Looking for Smoke,” Mara just moved to the Blackfeet Reservation, and now is suspected of a murder. How will they fight these injustices? The authors discuss their work with Austin Ferraro at the 2024 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C.
