I love these series of articles despite what they do to the TBR pile.
Lots of new and familiar authors. Most I haven't tried. I think these were when I was a very broke person just starting working for a living without a good book budget.
Ones that wouldn't fit the "big" pictures at top of post:
The Stars as Seen from This Particular Angle of Night: An Anthology of Speculative Verse - ,Carolyn Clink, et. al.
How Like a God - Brenda W. Clough
The Magic School Bus at the Waterworks - Joanna Cole
Sunglasses After Dark - Nancy A. Collins
The Enchantments of Flesh and Spirit - Storm Constantine
Love and War - Tonya C. Cook, et. al.
Mask Of The Wizard - Catherine Cooke
Author of article also mentions (but not sure of works or where to start with them):
Dorian, Almost Human
Sci-fi is one of the few areas in which non-white characters can be main characters in a narrative not focused on slavery, the civil rights movement, tropes like Ethnic Menial Labour, Apron Matron,Mammy and Whoopi Epiphany Speech, or some other form of racist commentary. Exceptions include those films and TV shows with entirely non-white casts.
Panellists: Martin McGrath, Carrie Vaughn, Roz J. Kaveney (GR),Takayuki Tatsumi, Laurie Penny
One of the defining political issues of our time, societal inequality is showing up on-screen in films like In Time, Elysium and The Dark Knight Rises, and TV shows such as Continuum and Arrow. How successfully do these works engage with the issues they raise? Is the imagery they use at odds with the narratives they follow? And what would radical anti-inequality SF look like?
Why does SF hate poor people? It seems to echo the media’s hate for the poor.
