American Heritage Month: A Timeline of Social Justice in Native American and Alaskan Native Communities with Heather Keeler Confirmation [Zoom event, 1 hour]. 11/8/2021: Murderous Fox Spirit Gets an Update in Korean Quarterly by Rachel Kim.Enjoyed it, particularly as it relates to the tv series of Lovecraft Country and Love, Sex, and Robots.  Really has been a revival of that particular bit of folklore and a change in how it's handled.

11/7/2021: Sea of Dreams [GN] by Cixin LiuInteresting story about an alien artist working in ice messing up the world.  I'm not sure the GN was great, but it was a clever idea to explore, particularly against the connection with one human artist. 11/6/2021: The Unknown Omnibus [GN] by Mark Waid and Minck OosterveerI'm of the opinion all the heaving bosoms were a little extraneous to the story of a smart woman exploring death. 11/5/2021: The Taking of Jake Livingston by Ryan Douglas 11/4/2021: The Taking of Jake Livingston by Ryan Douglas 11/3/2021: The Taking of Jake Livingston by Ryan Douglas [Image][Image]11/2/2021: The Taking of Jake Livingston by Ryan Douglas 11/1/2021: The Taking of Jake Livingston by Ryan DouglasExcellent.  Gay teenager dealing with vengeful school shooter spirit and being gay.  And black.  That's a lot of things to deal with.
