"It's tiny," says Nalo Hopkinson, 46, from her Toronto home, of the black sci-fi community. "And it's happening in an environment in which, particularly in the US, to talk about race is to be seen as racist. You become the problem because you bring up the problem. So you find people who are hesitant to talk about it."
– From “Race, the final frontier”, an article by Vanessa E. Jones in the Boston Globe on black science-fiction writers.
