What would the alternative history of the world be like, if the Europeans from 1492 onwards, treated the people they encountered in the Americas, Asia, the African continent and Australasia on their naval expeditions as humans they respected, humans they could exchange culture, technology and knowledge with?
Would we have capitalism? Would we live in harmony with the natural world?

I read The White Album. Ocean Vuong refers to it in his poem "Not Even".

This was my first time reading her writing. Short to the point sentences, almost dead pan. The way she talks about her MS diagnosis sticks with me. I appreciate the way she laces glimpses of her life into her observations of other peoples lives.
