Marine biologist and shark specialist Jasmin Graham faced some barriers to entry as a Black woman attempting to follow her dream of studying sharks. She chronicles that story, and tells us more about sharks, in her new memoir, Sharks Don't Sink: Adventures of a Rogue Shark Scientist. The book also discusses Jasmin's role in the foundation of Minorities in Shark Sciences (MISS) a group working to provide support for other aspiring marine biologists of color.
