Fantasy Magazine, Issue 60 (December 2016, People of Colo(u)r Destroy Fantasy! Special Issue)

LIGHTSPEED MAGAZINE was founded on the core idea that all science fiction is real science fiction, and that all fantasy is real fantasy. The whole point of this magazine is that science fiction and fantasy is vast. It is inclusive. It is about all people and for all people.

Funded as a stretch goal of LIGHTSPEEDâ€™s People of Colo(u)r Destroy Science Fiction! Kickstarter campaign, weâ€™re happy to present a special one-off issue of our otherwise discontinued sister-magazine, FANTASY (which was merged into LIGHTSPEED in 2012), called People of Colo(u)r Destroy Fantasy!: an all-fantasy extravaganza entirely writtenâ€”and edited!â€”by POC creators.

The People of Colo(u)r Destroy Fantasy! special issue exists to relieve a brokenness in the genre thatâ€™s been enabled time and time again by favoring certain voices and portrayals of particular characters. Here we bring together a team of POC writers and editors from around the globe to present fantasy that explores the nuances of culture, race, and history. This is fantasy for our present time, but alsoâ€”most of allâ€”for our future.

People of Colo(u)r Destroy Fantasy! is 100% written and edited by people of color, and is lead by guest editor Daniel JosÃ© Older, with editorial contributions from Amal El-Mohtar, Tobias S. Buckell, Arley Sorg, and others. It features four original, never-before-published short stories, from N.K. Jemisin, P. DjÃ¨lÃ Clark, Darcie Little Badger, and Thoraiya Dyer. Plus, thereâ€™s four classic reprints by Shweta Narayan, Leanne Simpson, Celeste Rita Baker, and Sofia Samatar. On top of all that, we also have an array of nonfiction articles and interviews, from Justina Ireland, Ibi Zoboi, Erin Roberts, Karen Lord, John Chu, Chinelo Onwualu, and Brandon Oâ€™Brien, as well as original illustrations by Reimena Yee, Emily Osborne, and Ana Bracic.

Enjoy the destruction!
