Alec Nevala-Lee’s Astounding is the first comprehensive biography of John W. Campbell, who, as a writer and magazine editor, wielded enormous influence over the field of science fiction in the mid-20th century. “His interests, his obsessions, and his prejudices shaped what science fiction was going to be,” Nevala-Lee says. Many people are familiar with Campbell’s name because it’s on the award given out every year by the World Science Fiction Society—the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer. (This year, the award went to Rebecca Roanhorse, who was on the podcast in September; other winners who’ve been on the show include Ada Palmer, Andy Weir, and Mur Lafferty.) From 1937 through the 1960s, Campbell used the magazine Astounding Science Fiction (now named Analog) to popularize science fiction and its potential to predict the future. But he also used the magazine to promote pseudosciences (like psionics and dianetics), and his legacy is tarnished by views that were “clearly racist.” “He was quite content to keep publishing stories by writers who looked like him... And the characters were almost all white,” Nevala-Lee says. “Campbell thought that maybe black writers weren’t interested in writing science fiction or they weren’t good at it. It never seems to have occurred to him that they might be more interested in writing for his magazine if they saw characters who looked like them.” Astounding is a powerful contribution to the history of science fiction, offering fascinating stories about the careers and personal lives of Campbell and his stable of talented and influential writers. But its immediate effect may be to spark a conversation about whether the best way to honor today’s emerging talent is with an award bearing the name of a man whose legacy is so problematic. A similar conversation occurred earlier this year over the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award; the debate ended when the American Library Association decided to change the name of the award. “That debate has not yet extended to the John W. Campbell Award. I think it's a legitimate discussion because Campbell’s opinions on race, in my opinion, are far more offensive than anything Wilder expressed," Nevala-Lee says.

The Leftscape is back after a week away, which allowed time for Wendy Sheridan to attend WorldCon 76 in San Jose, CA. Wendy brings us news on the women's sweep of the Hugo Awards given by the World Science Fiction Society, plus a protest outside the convention. This episode's feature is Wendy's interview with Joy Denebiem, who tells a wonderfully freewheeling and personal account of her gender transition at the age of 58, with great insight from her partner, Cheryl Martin. The blossoming that Joy has experienced through her journey to gender confirmation is audible and a truly enjoyable, educational listen. Mary McGinley reminds us that while we're living it up to get the most from the end of summer, we should remember the meaning of Labor Day - to celebrate workers and labor unions - and to remember the reasonable working conditions that many of us enjoy as a result of union organizing. Robin Renée shares a sound bite of a street action she, Anne Sabagh, and friends staged on the day of the Unite the Right 2 rally. News includes the Scottish efforts to correct the historical record on John A. MacDonald, the first Prime Minister of Canada, prison labor strikes in the U.S. and beyond, and the continuing sagas of Paul Manafort and Michael Cohen. In addition to Labor Day, it's time to celebrate or recognize Safe At Home Week, International Day Against Nuclear Tests, International Day of the Disappeared (August 30th), and Krishna Janmashtami (September 2nd). August 29th birthday shout outs go to Michael Jackson, notorious punk rocker GG Allin, and most especially to the late Glenn Walker, who was a pop culture writer at Biff Bam Pop!, co-host of the GAR! Podcast, the French Fry Diary guy, a friend, and a fan of Robin, Mary, and Wendy's previous podcast adventures. Next week's show will feature Mary's interview with Peggy Farrelly of NOW. *** The Leftscape's weird contest is still on!
