If this website is about the life and times of Gustavus Vassa, why is it called "Equiano's World?"
The current mythology about Gustavus Vassa focuses on someone labeled Olaudah Equiano, as if that is his stage name, not the real person behind the Equiano myth. The focus of the website seems to be the larger shadow of how Vassa has been interpreted, incorporated, and shaped in the popular imagination.
