David Farnell<p>A beautiful, deeply personal essay on racism from SFF writer Andy Duncan, freely available from the Journal on the Fantastic in the Arts. I've met Andy on multiple occasions, and have even been his student at a 3-day workshop on writing literary criticism on science fiction. And I love his fiction and nonfiction.</p><p><a href="https://dice.camp/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/scienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/literature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>literature</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>racism</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/IAFA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IAFA</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/ICFA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ICFA</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://www.fantastic-arts.org/jfa/it-is-always-time-to-talk-about-these-things/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">fantastic-arts.org/jfa/it-is-a</span><span class="invisible">lways-time-to-talk-about-these-things/</span></a></p>
