Me encanta que mucha gente haya descubierto el anarquismo y hayan hecho su libro de cabecera "Los desposeídos" de #ursulakleguin.
No entiendo cómo tan poca gente del colectivo LGTBIAQ+ tenga (tengamos) como libro de cabecera "la mano izquierda de la oscuridad" que me parece una maravilla.

Un appunto che poi inserirò nella mia recensione su Bookwyrm. Le Guin ha affermato che il maggiore Davidson in "The Word for World is Forest" incarna quello che il subconscio di lei considera il male assoluto, per quanto lei consciamente pensi che non esistano persone puramente malvagie. Il punto è che Davidson è "meramente" un uomo misogino, razzista e classista con formazione pseudo-STEM militare: nella prospettiva anarchica di Le Guin, lui È il male storicizzato.

“El espíritu de la imaginación es peligroso para quienes se aprovechan del estado de las cosas porque tiene el poder de demostrar que el estado de las cosas no es permanente, ni universal, ni necesario”.

Do you believe in #ClimateSolutions? You just might be a #solarpunk.
What started as an idea for a new approach to science fiction has evolved into a worldwide community.
"For practical inspiration, solarpunk looks to permaculture and Indigenous agriculture, sustainable architecture like Earthships and Arcosanti, as well as the maker movement and DIY culture. The future-focused inspiration has roots in the work of science fiction writers like Ursula K. Le Guin, Kim Stanley Robinson, and Octavia E. Butler, all of whom explore climate change, alternative economies, and equitable community in their work."

"There are people all over the world who believe a just and sustainable world is possible. Maybe you’re one of them. Oh, the details of how that world works will vary according to our individual priorities and values, not to mention the physical and political climate of where we live. But we share the same vision: a future in which we’ve tackled the environmental and social justice issues of our time in a way that brings humanity, nature, and technology into harmony. We dream of green, community-centered cities; of high-tech, ethical farms; of pollution-free skies and plastic-free oceans. We dream of a world of abundance and inclusion, with equitable resource distribution and flattened hierarchies. We know we can’t achieve this by following the same path we’ve been walking; we must work together to blaze a new and better trail.
"We are artists and writers and musicians. We are activists and community organizers and urban planners. We are architects and scientists and engineers. We are gardeners and gamers and makers.
[...]
"Though we sometimes disagree about what a solarpunk world looks like, we are united by our vision of a future based on hope. But 'hope' is a tricky concept. It can be a catalyst for action, or a crutch supporting denial. Hiding from horrid realities or deluding ourselves that everything will turn out OK is not the type of hope solarpunks embrace. We know that climate change is here, and we acknowledge how bad it could get. We accept that tough times lie ahead, and imagine ways of adapting to those challenges with resilience, compassion, and equity. We’re rethinking how we live our lives and how we organize our societies, trying to reshape our systems so they serve the needs of the many instead of the wants of the few. We’re rethinking our relationships with technology and with nature, searching for a sustainable balance between the two."

Hoy cumpliría años la genia: Ursula K. Le Guin.
Va mi homenaje, desde una de las emisiones del podcast El ficcionador, dedicado a ella.
...
Ursula Kroeber Le Guin, la genial autora de ciencia ficción (feminista de la primera hora), poesía, ensayo, literatura infantil y traductora de, entre otros, el Tao Te Ching y una selección de poemas de Gabriela Mistral, pasó por El ficcionador. Lo hizo con sus ideas y sus palabras porque, como ella misma escribió, «leer es una manera de escuchar».

"The exercise of imagination is dangerous to those who profit from the way things are because it has the power to show that the way things are is not permanent, not universal, not necessary."

The plastic remains in the ruins
Ursula K. Le Guin discussing her regrets about not using more gender-neutral language in her book 'The Left Hand of Darkness', the significance of pronouns, and the grammatical accuracy of the singular 'they':
"English has a truly ungendered pronoun only in the plural. He, she, and it are gendered, they is not. [...] Historically, and colloquially, they has been regularly used as an ungendered or bisexual singular."
