One Blink: The Transformation of an Ancient Culture are Pao's poignant insights into his life as a Hmong refugee and eventually a US citizen navigating the American landscape. From 2004 to 2016, he penned columns-my "brushstrokes" or "grains of sand"-for the Appleton Post-Crescent to shed light on this experience. The columns or "snapshots" explore themes such as loss of home, atrocities of war, sports, leadership, history, politics, generational gaps, love, conflicting cultural ideologies, assimilation, popular culture, and more.
