7.2: Ariel & Christina Discuss: Why Must Utopia Be Cruel?

In this episode, Ariel and Christina try to get to the bottom of why our fictional visions of utopia are so negative. They often involve mindless acquiescence to an authoritarian nanny state, the oppression and labor of an underclass, or both. It’s as if we can’t imagine a situation in which we all voluntarily treat each other (reasonably) decently and life can be good for everyone. We discuss the literary origins of utopia, how it has evolved (or not) as a concept, and Ariel gives a few examples of sci-fi futures that are about as close to her style of solarpunk utopia as can be. Ultimately, the topic of utopia raises more questions than answers.

I just backed my friend's cooperative card game. I love apocalypses with additions to our reality, and this one has GIANT REPTILE FRIENDS (some call them dragons i guess) plus it is #Afrofuturism, #FamilyFriendly, and features #HumanArtist work!

'In fact, the very act of trying to look ahead to discern possibilities and offer warnings is itself an act of hope.’

Okorafor's novel is tightly-written but with powerful world-building, focused on the plight (and power) of those marginalized in the race for progress.

Don’t see much about this release. An amazing double disc of deeply soulful songs, deep house grooves, and beyond, from house music pioneer Robert Owens.
