HAIL, THE BLACK EMPIRE!

I consider this to be one of the major publishing events of2023. Black Empire , George S. Schuyler's long, lostproto-Afrofuturist/badass sci-fi classic is back in a new edition. It deservesto be an international bestseller, with a movie and graphic novel adaptations.
Why am I so impressed? When I read the original book publicationfrom 1991 (my unending thanks to Paul Di Fillipo) it blew my mind, which Ithought was impossible. Even back then I was a jaded veteran of wallowing inthe weird.
So, what about it makes it such a brain blaster? Uh-oh, here I go. . .
First, it is historically significant in being a rare example ofscience fiction written for a black audience. Back in the 1930s the black-ownerPhiladelphia Courier published a fiction supplement to attract readersSchuyler who worked for them as an investigative reporter, contributed stories under pseudonyms. Black Empire his final effort,published as two serials.
It’s the story of Henry Belsidus, a Harlem doctor, treats richwhite women, and uses his wealth to create the Black International, an organizationof young black people he has cultivated dedicated to uplifting the race (“Blackgenius against the world”) by any means necessary—even if these means arefascistic and terroristic. They take revenge against “white world supremacy” inAmerica, and then go on to reconquer Africa, and send Europe into a new DarkAge. He comes off as both a hero and a villain.
Schuyler didn’t take it–or any of the other fiction he wrote forthe Courier–seriously, dismissing it all as “hokum,” but as a protégé ofH.L. Menchen, a satirical attitude comes through. I probably should warn thatthere is something to disturb–or even offend–just about everybody.
And I would like to go on the record as saying that BlackEmpire is impressive science fiction. Notes in this edition track thesources of the ideas, showing that this is what happens when a brilliant mind,keeping track of what’s going on, is allowed to relax and play with it all,unleashing a powerful imagination.
I think he had fun. He urged the Courier to provide illustrationsto attract more readers, which they never did. Too bad. It is rich in imagerywhich would inspire an artist. Maybe they still can . . .
Both editions have a list of Shuyler’s Courierfiction–if only they could be found and republished!--and notes for more spec ficthat, if written, would no doubt be as interesting.
You should get it and read it. I need to do the same with his more“serious” novel Black No More, in which a scientist finds a way to makeblack people white.

WHO ARE THE PEOPLE���S POLICE?

Norman Spinrad has been a standout in the speculative fictionfield since the New Wave days. I���m not talking the pop music trend of thelate 1970s. This was earlier, going back to the antediluvian 1960s, around thesame time as the French New Wave cinema movement, which was similar, but coming from a different place (remind me to discuss Jean Luc Godardsome other time). His Bug Jack Barron is a classic in the spec fic subgenreof deconstructing contemporary reality in an attempt to discover a new kind offuture. Keep your corporate escapism, kids, my idea of real fun is to see thebig, scary world out there torn apart and made into something outrageous yetplausible.
Spinrad���s The People���s Police is that kind of novel.
It keeps on surprising and is outrageous in a way we just don'tsee enough these days when you���re not supposed to offend anybody. I wasexpecting a grim assessment of our world in the days of Defund the Police, butI should have known, after all, this is Norman Spinrad.
It���s set in a futuristic (and a different kind of futurism)post-Apocalyptic/Katrina New Orleans. Yeah, there's some dystopian socialcommentary, there's also . . . fun! Voodoo and Mardi Gras in the mix make adifference.
I yearn for science fiction that makes you want to get up anddance. It doesn���t seem to be out there. I���ve come close in my writing, butstill haven���t succeeded. The People���s Police comes pretty damn close tobeing this Holy Grail, not just the subject matter, but the style. The good old New Wave never rocked like this.
Did I say that it���s a whole lot of fun?
I was also impressed with the Voodoo. He did some research andcame up with a fresh take on it. I won���t get into the details here, you shouldget the book and read it yourself.
Maybe the loas got in there, too. There's also good reason for theNew York publishers to be afraid. It���s dangerous in a way somedon���t think is possible in these times.
It is possible, and we needit.

WELCOME TO ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE
I’ve never been into what “everybody”—you know, the “cool” people like. You should have seen the looks I’d get in my Nixon administration high school years when someone one works ask what music I like, to size me up, and I’d say “Cab Calloway, Spike Jones, Frank Zappa . . .”
These days, I’d have to lead with Acid Mothers Temple.
I’d probably get the same looks, only more so. They would probably be accompanied by facial tics, twitching limbs, foaming at the mouth. Maybe they’ll just scream and run. And that's just in reaction to their name.
I like to describe their music as what the Establishment (remember them?) was afraid acid rock would be, only more so. There’s a definite psychedelic vibe, also electronic wailing that gets downright stark, raving sci-fi, complex structures that kick the guts out of the traditional rock’n’roll two and a half minute attention span, and on the rare incidents where there are vocals, they usually aren’t in English. Most of the time, there aren’t even words.
We’re talking music to write sci-fi by. A lot of my latest novel was written with it blasting away in the background.
They probably won’t become top 40 hits on anybody’s charts, win any awards, or even get played on the radio—as far as I know—but, oh baby, what they do to my brains and body! Language fails here. Invite the more adventurous to give them a listen. The rest of you can retreat to a safe place.
