Síntesis:
Briefly explores the history and consequences of the building of the Transcontinental Railroad in the United States from an intentionally "woke" political perspective. Argues that the Transcontinental Railroad may have physically connected the continent, but racially it created pain and division, especially in disrupting Native American trade and hunting grounds and put Chinese workers in terrible working conditions. Includes a glossary.
