About that "learning about dust pneumonia" thing, here's a blatant example of #WhiteGaze /"soft" #Racism:
If you, writer, could take the time to learn about dust pneumonia in order to slide it into your story, how come you refer to the indigenous characters in your book as "Native American guy" (all men so far), and not, "a Navajo man" or whatever. You set your book in fucking New Mexico, and you cannot be bothered to even distinguish between the main tribes there?
