57 Bus recounts the true story of the incident that occurred a few years ago wherein one teen set another teen's skirt on fire on an AC Transit bus in Oakland. The book explores topics such as gender nonconformity, the autism spectrum, the juvenile justice system, and the socioeconomic imbalance between the hills and the flats of the East Bay. The book also explores the limitations and distortions of media narratives.
