Twentieth Century Science Fiction
440 words
Kindred was the very first book by Octavia Butler
that I read. Unlike many science-fiction writers,
she spends no time discussing the dynamics of time
travel, which for a tale of this emotional
magnitude, is a good thing. Kindred is hard book
to read and it leaves you with so many questions;
I have never looked at history in quite the same
way. That is the hallmark of good writing, when it
leaves you with much to think about. Also, Octavia
Butler was the only black woman writing science

planning can be impinged upon. The following is a

Slave Masters Sexual Pleasure

The enslavement of the Black man was not the first
time slavery existed in history. According to
history, another group of people that were
enslaved were the Israelites in Egypt. However, no
slavery, even that of the Israelites, in history
was worse than the slavery of the Black man. The
slavery of the Black man in America was the
cruelest ever known to man. Europeans transported
slaves from Africa as early as 1505. Spaniards
brought the slaves to the island of Hispaniola.
Some historians say th...

process of helping kids to learn and society in
general. Some of the risks that I thought of that
would effect the students is the decision on how

an ancient scroll found in 1945 and that of a
