《Living on 45th street》Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome
Advertisement
What is wrong with you are you confused? We've been lost as a nation and half of our world act like they need medication. Our president is black, but it is as if you have misread that fact. We should be together, but instead we have young brothers and sisters dying in a plethora. Men used to be proud to protect there families, but majority of the men have disappeared. Women used to be proud to protect their children, but it is as if most of them are in the system. What happened to the proud citizens during the Harlem Renaissance or during Negritude. Could it be the generation. Boys walk around with their pants hanging down girls walk around with dresses so short they shouldn't bend over. What is wrong with us. We are not proud why are we not proud. Our skin is the peak of beauty, but we act like it is the abyss. What happened to us what happened! Someone tell me what happened?! Where did we lose the knowledge, the wisdom, and the experience? Our ancestors created more things than Europeans can even contemplate. We try so hard as a people to show that we are so different and that we are not under the white man's law. At the end of the day we make ourselves look foolish. When we watch the videos we are supporting the ignorance of society. People saying B this or N that when did it become okay to knock your people. When did it become okay for men to disrespect a black woman's being. When did it become okay for women to be objectified as a present. "All I want for my birthday is a big booty girl" our ancestors fought to many years to ensure that we are not treated anything less than a human by europeans, but ironically we treat ourselves like everything less than a human. What is wrong with us? Where did we go wrong? What's wrong?

Beast
A threat to the galaxy has come from another, and the Union of intelligent life will go to any length to stop it. Military Quarantine has held for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Traders, merchants, colonists, and Pirates live risky lives along the fringes as the politics from the inner systems fail to see the larger threats beyond their borders. A lone human finds himself far from home with no memories to how he arrived. A failing Trade vessel plays on a desperate gamble, while a malicious parasite searches for a suitable host. ............................................. Author's note: Beast is a story that I wrote a long, long time ago. Some of you might have read it then, back when it was posted on reddit over at r/HFY. It was my first webfiction and made in the spirit of that subreddit's "genre" of humanity being awesome. But, it is also a story that has bothered me a little bit. Just like most new writers tend to do, I made mistakes and errors that feel painful to reread. A Space Opera will be a Space Opera, but I had prose that makes present-me cringe. Still, at the same time, the story is still very much a tale I've never given up on. It was my first adventure into fiction: Beast was a crazy adventure with bodysnatching aliens, galactic war, threats from across the universe... Posting this story here is a way to try and redeem myself a bit. I won't call it a complete rewrite, because it's not, but I have wanted to go through and correct some of the major issues Beast has for a long time and put it somewhere more accessible to read (instead of as posts/comments on reddit) and I figure that now is as good a time as any. Additional corrections you might notice are welcome.
