[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it based on the recent Pulitizer prize winning novel? There was also a movie some years ago about this.[/quote] Is this Underground Airlines? About a world now with slavery in it and a black bounty hunter who tracks down runaways? I heard about it on NPR. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/05/books/ben-winters-underground-airlines.html It's absolutely chilling but why is something like this racist? It's not a proposal to have slavery. I'm sure it's not going to be so tone deaf as to show this alternate future as being "fun" and "great". I was not quite intrigued enough to go out and buy the book but of course there are tons of questions piqued- how do other countries react to us in this future? etc. If people on here read this or watch this show and there is an intelligent discussion, I would follow along and think that's a good thing.[/quote]
