—Werb, Dan, author.
Over the past ten years, Tijuana has became one of the worlds most dangerous cities as the murder rate has skyrocketed, producing a staggering number of female victims. Public health expert Dan Werb began to study these murders in 2013, and in 'City of Omens' his search for the ultimate causes of Tijuana's femicide reveals the true cost of American empire-building and what happens when a city's lifeline is brutally severed. Werb lives in Toronto, ON. 2019 GG nominee.
