About this product

Product Information

Whenever we imagine a world without war or injustice, we are engaging in speculative fiction. Radicals and activists devote their lives to envisioning such worlds, and then go about trying to create them. This collection brings together 20 such stories, as well as essays by Tananarive Due and Mumia Abu-Jamal. Named for the great Octavia Butler, giant of science fiction and a rare woman of colour in her field, this engaging and enlightening collection is the first book to explore the connections between radical science fiction and movements for social change.

Powerful anthology of visionary fiction by BIPOC writers, organizers, activists
This is a powerful anthology of short stories compiled by visionary writers and organizers (Walidah Imarisha and adrienne maree brown), written by people who walk the talk and who cast their gaze toward a future where we all can do right by ourselves and our communities. I can't sing enough praise for this anthology.
