Tomi Adeyemi really said "you cannot be a good leader of a system that is oppressive and exploitative by design. even those with the purest intentions will be corrupted by trying to change such an institution from within" and I personally think that's metal as fuck

So, I am excited!!! I love Gina Prince-Bythewood's eye and I have a deep and abiding yearning for a good big-screen Black fantasy epic directed by a Black woman that isn't part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (seriously though, thanks Black Panther for breaking the gate open) or in danger of being canceled because either the Black showrunner didn't understand the vision (Kindred) or the network didn't (Lovecraft Country)...
Anyway... A Children of Blood and Bone movie??? I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I’ve been hesitant to read Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi because of all the hype it’s been getting (I usually get burned by really popular books) but I gave it a shot and oh my god. Please read this book. It is INCREDIBLE.
It’s also very applicable. We talk about the parallels between the current genocides and The Hunger Games, and Children of Blood and Bone has them too. One in particular that I keep fixating on is the oppressor’s way of framing violence.
The violence of the oppressor is just self defense, or else a “right idea, maybe not the best execution” deal. Whereas the violence of the oppressed is just too far, it’s inexcusable, it’s the reason they need to be oppressed.
King Saran thinks magic is simply too dangerous, no one deserves that amount of power, they could hurt so many people with it. Which is why it’s okay for him to slaughter entire villages, burning everything to the ground. That’s why it’s okay for him to enslave children; he has to keep their spirits broken so they never turn magic against him. And when the people whose lives he’s ruined fight back? Well that’s a perfect example of why he’s doing all this. Just look what one magician did to all his soldiers! People like that are exactly what he’s protecting the kingdom from. They’re just too dangerous.
Almost like the way “terrorists” are talked about by my own government and the IOF. It’s okay for soldiers to completely decimate Gaza and make conditions unlivable for its entire population in the name of eradicating Hamas, because they would probably destroy everything if they were left alive. It’s okay to murder thousands upon thousands of innocents, as long as there are no terrorists left. Because who knows how many innocent Israelis those terrorists might kill or rape if they were allowed to live. It’s just too much of a risk.

When the other polls will be out, they'll be in my 'fantasy polls' tag.
Ah also don't scream. I know this is hard.
Ah and here's a science fiction poll if you're interested. The others are in the 'sf polls' tag you can access through it.
I still have ideas but I'm taking a (probably rather short) break from 'fantasy polls' poll making. Make suggestions for future polls if you want (obscure faves work, I tend to include mine so why not yours ? I think my ask box is open if you want to stay anonymous)

The Hanged Man - Wouldn't Recommend
Both of these books were annoying and had character regressions instead of development.
