yes, great data but all these years later, I'm surprised we still have no maps, they would be so useful at least for teaching 😔

yes, it was jarring, but for me not because Everett used it, it was bc the insane cruelty of white americans was palpable via this word. But I loved this book, I love Everett's sense of humour, the structure & pace of his novels, and his sense of justice :)
