Document Summary
Organization is science fiction, so why don(cid:495)t they explore ideas through science fiction stories. I agree and have no idea wht science fiction jas with social justice organizing. Stories give them an avenue to create ideas\ Visionary fiction: is a distingushment between mainstream science fiction writing and fiction that finds relevance towards building new, free worlds. It is important to tackle people(cid:495)s imagination and minds because it is where all forms of decolonization is born. Makes sense because racism is a social construct that is created in our minds and in order to fix the problem we need to change what we think. Other readings highlights what needs to bec changed, this reading provides a solution. Real life example of how slaves imagined their offsprings as free men and women and how the brought that freedom into being. Real life parraelllels that put these problems into an objective perspective.
