The genre of science fiction has often been hostile to readers who are not white, middle class, heterosexual men. Though the genre has historically ignored Dark Others; however, they are never completely omitted from the story, as they are often characterized as the creature, the alien, or the monster. In this way, the futuristic windows and mirrors available to Black women and girls are often cracked, tiny, or shattered. The primary objective of this paper, then, is to further conversations about the need for diverse books and genres in schools by focusing on the science fiction reading histories of Black women and highlighting the features that draw Black women to the genre. The reading histories of Black women can provide further data that showcases the need for new mythologies, ones that center Dark Others prospering in the future.

“我非常需要黑人蓬勃发展的愿景”:用黑人妇女的话语解放幻想

科幻小说的类型经常受到非白人,中产阶级,异性恋男人的读者的反对。尽管该类型在历史上一直忽略了《黑暗其他》;但是,它们永远不会从故事中被完全忽略掉,因为它们通常被称为生物,外星人或怪物。这样,黑人妇女和女孩可以使用的未来派窗户和镜子通常会破裂,微小或破碎。因此,本文的主要目的是通过关注黑人女性的科幻小说阅读历史并强调吸引黑人女性进入这一体裁的特征,来进一步讨论学校对各种书籍和体裁的需求。黑人女性的阅读历史可以提供进一步的数据,以显示对新神话的需求,这些神话将使“黑暗其他人”在未来的繁荣发展成为中心。
