Steve examines Octavia Butler's Modern Classic SF novel 'Kindred' through the lens of Existentialism and muses on how SF can be relevant in commenting upon History, especially in contemporary discussions of Identity Politics.
Due to the inability of many (1) to attend to detailed argument (2) to examine the evidence, detail and nuance of documented history (3)to argue Socratically and instead kneejerk respond by gainsaying (4) to go beyond relying on received wisdom without doing source researching themselves, comments on this video are disabled. In short, this is a video about Literature, not an opportunity for trolls on either side of a debate to begin shouting at one another. Reality is complex and greyshaded, after all.
