🤦🏿‍♂️Actually, nevermind.

Why is everything like this?

The author supposedly went on an anti-woke, right-wing podcast to promote the movie while trashing other books and movies that do have a "woke" message or that have inclusive representation? But... why?

Why was that necessary?

@mekkaokereke Damn it! This was an author I enjoyed. I was going to watch the movie.

I will keep then reading only women that are explicitly trans-inclusive feminist with characters that are not only white.

Explicitly anti racist is harder to find, for some reason... No one asks that question explicitly on interviews.

@delawen @mekkaokereke ooh, Light from Uncommon Stars is a good trans-inclusive scifi read :)

@noodlemaz @delawen @mekkaokereke I loved Light from Uncommon Stars. Genre-bending, original and one of the best books that I've read in the last decade.

Other queer and women scifi/fantasy authors I like that I didn't see mentioned:
* Rivers Solomon (who is non-binary)
* Mary Robinette Kowal. The Lady Astronaut series is very good.
* Rebecca Roanhorse: Fantasy based on native American mythology.
