Some reaction to "Kimberley Ann Duray Is Not Afraid" over the interwebs this week:

[livejournal.com profile] joannemerriam says it's "really excellent and thought-provoking", which is very nice.

It gets a "cool story" from Chaos Theory, whose author I cannot find on my brief inspection of said blog.

Lois Tilton at The Internet Review of Science Fiction appears to like it less, commenting:
This one pushes the balance between Story and Message pretty hard. The Story is one of an interracial marriage, the problems of making it work. But the marriage is also a medium for debating the issue of the Message.
[...]
References to the Black Panthers and Huey P. Newton are jarringly anachronistic; I thought at first that this was historical fiction, not future SF.


...which I have to admit was not on the list of things I thought might be issues for readers the day that story went live. Well, live and learn.

Finally, Free SF Reader gives it 4 out of 5.
