Organizers and activists envision, and try to create, such worlds all the time. Walidah Imarisha and adrienne maree brown have brought twenty of them together in the first anthology of short stories to explore the connections between radical speculative fiction and movements for social change. The visionary tales of Octavia's Brood span genres -- sci-fi, fantasy, horror, magical realism -- but all are united by an attempt to inject a healthy dose of imagination and innovation into our political practice and to try on new ways of understanding ourselves, the world around us, and all the selves and worlds that could be. The collection is rounded off with essays by Tananarive Due and Mumia Abu-Jamal, and a preface by Sheree ReneÌe Thomas" -- $c Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Social justice $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social change $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Science fiction. 650 0 $a Speculative fiction. 600 10 $a Butler, Octavia E. $x Criticism and interpretation. 655 0 $a Science fiction. 655 0 $a Short stories. 700 1 $a Imarisha, Walidah, $e editor. 700 1 $a Brown, Adrienne M., $e editor. 700 1 $a Thomas, Sheree R., $e writer of foreword. 710 2 $a Institute for Anarchist Studies, $e issuing body. 941 $a 7 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017024719.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718092115.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20190514013520.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006084621.0 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20170728024924.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20150804010708.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20150702021128.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5E8D433A208011E59F296EB6DAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b IODInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
