Sadler went down the Roganhole, Absalom was sent to a conversion “therapy” center, and Norma’s pushing up daisies in a shallow grave on Epstein island. I’m afraid we’re cooked.
I can recommend this book, “The Free People’s Village” though… generally relevant and good read
English teacher by day, Maddie Ryan spends her nights and weekends as the rhythm guitarist of Bunny Bloodlust, a queer punk band living in a warehouse-turned-venue called “The Lab” in Houston’s Eighth Ward. When Maddie learns that the Eighth Ward is to be sacrificed for a new electromagnetic hyperway out to the wealthy, white suburbs, she joins “Save the Eighth,” a Black-led organizing movement fighting for the neighborhood. At first, she’s only focused on keeping her band together and getting closer to Red, their reckless and enigmatic lead guitarist. But working with Save the Eighth forces Maddie to reckon with the harm she has already done to the neighborhood—both as a resident of the gentrifying Lab and as a white teacher in a predominantly Black school.
Woah woah woah…
I’m only seeing Sad Boy™ there better be Abs Boy™ in this here dystopia.
There is definitely a love triangle, trust

Oh, you have no idea!
If that synopsis bit is all you read of it… I’m not gonna agree that it is a good book like the other user.It reeks of performative fan fiction cause it like literally is. It is no worse “white women creaming her pants at her own somewhat problematic dreams” than most of the other books in the YA dystopia category but boy howdy this is rough and the fact that the author was literally a Texas English teacher and writes leftist “journalism” showed hard. It literally quotes better nonfiction books to you.
Sorry. Had to put that somewhere.
Should there not be white teachers in black schools?
Synopsis sounds like white guilt porn basically.
Author is also white lol.
