All that you touch
You Change.
All that you Change
Changes you.
The only lasting truth
Is Change.
God
Is Change.
-Earthseed: The Books of the Living
by Lauren Oya Olamina
(Octavia E. Butler)

Earthseed...Anyanwu, Doro, Lilith, Lauren, me, you...Earthseed.

All of us Earthseed, all touched by her, some Changed by her, some found truth through her or at least remembered truths from her worlds.

Honor these movements and truths, honor her, Octavia E. Butler, by reading either her writings that most inspired you or by sharing your own works for which she was your muse.

Survivor Wild Seed Mind of My Mind Patternmaster
Clay's Ark Kindred Blood Child (and other stories)
Parable of the Sower Parable of the Talents
Dawn Imago Adulthood Rites
Fledgling

Her works have been unparalleled not only with people of color, but in the whole science fiction genre...she stood alone.
