A miniseries based around PoC cowboys. Perhaps members of a ranching dynasty? #MSWL

So the #sciencefiction I want to see in my #MSWL? Smart SF that takes a diverse future as a given.

And I don't mean sidekicks either. I mean heroes. And full on casts. #sciencefiction #MSWL

And then look at demographic predictions for the next 50 or 100 years. If you're writing #sciencefiction you need a diverse cast! #MSWL

Late-night #MSWL in reaction to reading yet another SF set in a nearly all-white future: SF is extrapolation! LOOK at current demographics.
