Recently, a perennial discussion about diversity, or lack thereof, amongst writers of speculative fiction, and their characters, storylines, settings, and perspectives, blew up on the Internet, resulting in the hashtag #DiversityinSFF

To investigate the fall out of that discussion, Jason Sperber (@dad_strangeland) fills in as host and welcomes a trio of science fiction writers (and Nerds) of Color: Walidah Imarisha (@walidahimarisha), Claire Light (@seelight), and Daniel Jose Older (@djolder) on "Hard N.O.C. Life."

Topics include:

Speculative fiction and the responsibility to dream
The origins of the #DiversityinSFF hashtag and the Carl Brandon Society
The challenges of publishing and the future of crowdsourcing
