DescriptionAcross many worlds and many timelines, these stories depict the moments when people see the fascism in front of them for what it is, accept it as real, and make the choice to fight it. Who are the canaries in the coal mine? When can the long-hidden voice no longer be ignored? Anti-fascist rebellion can take many forms. A transgender woman living on an artificial satellite learns to reject oppression via poetry. A machine ethicist finds a way to dance with her gods in a surveillance state. An unlikely golem hears a new call to action. A jailed musician rediscovers the music of rebellion.
Will you recognize fascism and join the revolution? With stories by Sam J. Miller, Jaymee Goh, Brandon O’Brien, Octavia Cade, Jennifer Shelby, and many more... Table of Contents"A Disease of Time and Temporal Distortion" by Jennifer Shelby

Praise"These are voices we need to be hearing now, a powerful chapter in the F&SF tradition of speculative resistance, 'realists of a larger reality' as LeGuin put it, whose word-art nurtures freedom and the seeds of change."
—Ada Palmer, Astounding Award winner and Hugo Award finalist "[T]his timely anthology… will no doubt resonate with politically minded readers." --Publishers Weekly “These stories are passionate, heartbreaking, and important. Also, occasionally very funny!” —Naomi Kritzer, award-winning author of Catfishing on CatNet “'Fascist' is so often an epithet that we sometimes forget that it is also a descriptor, a label that can and must be accurately applied if we are to avoid reliving history's greatest horrors. 'Recognize Fascism' isn't just a collection of fiction: it's training data for knowing when it's time to take to the streets." —Cory Doctorow, award-winning author of Little Brother and Radicalized "Writers have struggled over the past decade to stay one step ahead of dystopia, to preserve their resilient threads of hope. This collection is a rope bridge made of those things, braided with indomitable strength and a willingness to see the other side will not be easy to reach, and that it will take all of us working with our eyes wide open to even try." —Meg Elison, Philip K. Dick Award winner "…an enjoyable and intriguing read that encourages the reader to critically assess their own lives and their encounters with fascism. With worlds a little too like our own, albeit with slightly more biomechanical arms and lazers, Recognize Fascism serves as a grim reminder that we’re only a few missteps away from fascism ourselves." --British Fantasy Society "Recognize Fascism was a wild ride that I can’t recommend highly enough to anyone who has wondered how they’d react in a crisis." --Long and Short Reviews |
