Since the mid-term, there have been a number of stories that deal with the issue of race. One story that really dealt with the issue of race was Kindred by Octavia Butler. In Kindred, Dana Franklin is transported back in time whenever her ancestor, Rufus Weylin, is in danger, and when Dana goes to Rufus’s time, she realizes that she is going to a time where African American people are still slaves. Every time Dana goes to help Rufus, she is treated even worse than the last time she had gone…

Jake opened the window shutters and circled the inside of the barn. Dammit, did he have to do everything? He gave orders to store tools against the wall. His boots scrunched against loose straw as he marched past the wagon and the buggy. Red nickered. The horse moved its rump against the rail and swished its tail. Jake scooped a handful of grain from a bin and dropped it into Red’s feed trough. The horse, he could depend on. At last, he found a pitchfork behind the stairs leading to the loft. He…

In class, we talked about people like this and they became like bounty hunters. When they took these African Americans, they did not care if they were free or not. In “Germantown Friends Protest against Slavery” they also talked about African Americans being…

received them with kindness. Little did they know that the reason they came was not for them but for the gold in the mines. Natives where force to leave their reservations, others died of diseases brought by the foreigners, and some were hunted by bounty hunters. Thus, the native populations diminish, and white settlers took over their property. Prior to the arrival of the white men there was an estimate of 310,000 to 705,00 native people.

nervous breakdown. The Vanguards don’t like disobedience. They like order. They give you a directive and you better haul ass to do said directive until it’s done. Paledon grabbed my clammy hands. Squeezed them. Felt them. Scuffed them. “Hello? Hunter, look at me.” With his hands in my own, it felt as though all the worries in the world had vanished like a flame being extinguished by the gentle wind. I mustered the courage to look up at the one whom I admired and sought as my friend. “Don't…

These humans are the ones that made it through World War Terminus and continue to live on a residually radioactive planet, so their survival instincts have taken over and arguable lessen their other aspects of gentile humanity.
