The Guardian has a specific plea by and for persons of color, but a good deal of what is said addresses other issues of diversity in fantasy and science fiction. But mostly it talks about the meaning of an award being a statue of Lovecraft.
Ultimately, the Lovecraft statue must go. He may be replaced by Butler, or Carrie Cuinn’s sea serpent wrapped around the world idea or any of the many other options, but the fantasy community cannot embrace its growing fanbase of color with one hand while deifying a writer who happily advocated for our extermination with the other.The Hugo, no matter what else can be said about it, can be displayed by anyone at all.
