📚 #ArtIsAWeapon #SciFi #Afrofuturist #Author #OctaviaEButler reading a passage from her 1998 novel "Parable of The Talents" in a 2005 @democracynow interview: "Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery." - From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Prophetic and eerie how we are now living this 1998 imagining of the year 2032 ... #OctaviaButler #PropheticWritings #ParableoftheTalents #LaurenOlamina #Earthseed #GodIsChange #SaveHumanity #TrustBlackWomen #Resist #Organize #FBF #BlackCreativeGenius #TraScapades #ArtIsAWeapon

Sing to the Sky

Sing to the sky, it will unfold.

Lo' and behold there is gold.

Tucked beneath the starry sheets of glimmer and shimmer,

The stars, they say; "come hither"

And beckon you still.

To pluck a handful, maybe even five.

Maybe a hundred, to make you come alive.
