Episode 76: Ocean Vuong's "On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous" Part 1
Manage episode 318106943 series 2953876
Hello, colorful cast of characters! Welcome back to another episode of this syncopated sound wave masquerading as a podcast. That's right, join the usual crew of Marci and Ako as they discuss part one of the poetic, beautiful, and perhaps... gorgeous queer Vietnamese-American novel "On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous" by Ocean Vuong!
A couple of trigger warnings off the top- this book discusses the following: war, rape and sexual assault, child abuse, bullying, racism, and a particularly intense instance of animal cruelty. Please take care while listening.
Intro - 00:00:10 - 00:14:00
Summary - 00:14:16 - 00:38:14
Discussion - 00:38:28 - 1:27:49
Also, follow this link for Khadija Mbowe's video essay on digital black face that Marci referenced in the discussion section (and, of course, show her some love-- we appreciate you, friend, nice work!) -
