This was posted on the Carl Brandon site this week.Re: Black Science Fiction in WikipediaThe following message is from Jenn (who is having trouble postingmessages to CarlB list):Please Help with Wikipedia issues:I need help! There is currently a fight going on to delete thecategory: Sciencefiction by writers of color. The excuse for the deletion is ---Quote:"Two basic concerns here - Everyone has a skin colour it is anirrelevancy.Second it may have some relevancy on the biography pages, but whaton earth does it have to do with their fictional output. It maybe asubject of the work but that is different from the colour of theauthor."See the discussion here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2008_March_20#Category:Science_fiction_by_writers_of_colorI know that Wikipedia is crazy and all but I still think that thisis worth fighting for. We will be erased ya'll!!Jenn
