Response to Octavia E. Butler's novel 'Kindred'


Octavia Estelle Butler (June 22, 1947 – February 24, 2006) was an American science fiction writer, one of the best-known among the few African-American women in the field.  
She won both Hugo and Nebula awards. In 1995, she became the first science fiction writer to receive the MacArthur Foundation Genius Grant.
In 1979, she published Kindred, a novel that uses the science-fiction concept of time travel to explore slavery in the United States.
