The Ones Who Stay and Fight is important because it gives us hope. It’s a story that dares us to open ourselves to the possibility of equality and tolerance in a real world that doesn’t show either. Yet even the opening of this scene leads the reader to the possibility of redemption. We see a girl on the edge of hatred, and a man (her father) who has been killed by enforcers of Um-Helet. There is the idea that evil is a thing that can spread, and unfortunately, they must nip it in the bud before it does. It must also work toward keeping its utopia intact, so it doesn’t go back to its original state. In Um-Helet, the world just is that pristine. We hold our breath as we invariably realize that things aren’t all they appear to be. When we read stories of utopias, we’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. What’s curious about this story is the lack of tension. It’s detached from this world as we know it. Everyone is family there, and joy is a way of life. Within it, the narrator paints a picture of a society unblemished by racism and the shade of conformity. The Ones Who Stay and Fight is a story of redemption. We’ll begin with a utopia that fights to maintain peace and tolerance. I’ll discuss the ones that are important to the narrative of black people as a whole. Its stories trace a multitude of varied experiences.
This is what makes How Long Till Black Future Month such an essential text for the 21st century. Our perceptions of ourselves are transformed in the process. Whether the narrative medium is through print, video, or audio - our experiences are reflected back to us for better or for worse. You can't shun them and their work.The multimedia narrative has been shown to have both positive and negative effects on the neurobiology of those that consume it. I don't like rebranding Black History Month as Black Futures Month when we have Black freedom fighters from the past still incarcerated.
