Introduction: "An image of tomorrow" -- Space travel and first contact narratives -- Race, genetics, and science fiction -- The apocalypse has already come: post-apocalyptic landscapes -- "Our knowledge is not primitive": Indigenous and Eurowestern science -- Conclusion: "How long 'til Black future month?"
"An examination of science fiction tropes in Octavia E. Butler, Ted Chiang, Sabrina Vourvoulias, and many others, demonstrates how authors of various races and ethnicities write SF that pays homage to the genre while also creating a more diverse and inclusive portrait of the future"-- Provided by publisher.
