Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

Monica Macias’s story is a fascinating collision of identity, ideology, and race. Raised in North Korea but born in Equatorial Guinea, her journey across continents forces her to confront and redefine what race means beyond skin color. Her memoir challenges rigid definitions of identity, proving that belonging is often shaped more by experience than by origin.
