Can anyone point me towards any good articles on race in fantasy literature? Got an essay due, and could always use a few more sources...

Probably too late now, but for future...

- an essay by Pam Noles about her experiences growing up as a black sf/f reader and discovering Earthsea

- NK Jemison on lack of diversity in sf/f (focuses more on sf, but not entirely)

- Nnedi Okorafor on Stephen King's Super-Duper Magical Negroes

None of which are scholarly, but still interesting.

Thanks!

As it turns out, I ended up doing my essay on something completly unrelated, so it didn't matter either way.
