Science Fiction in the Days of American Authoritarianism ft. Annalee Newitz & Charlie Jane Anders
In the latest episode of our Elon In Power series, we’re joined by sci-fi authors and Our Opinions Are Correct co-hosts Annalee Newitz and Charlie Jane Anders to dig into how science fiction shaped Elon Musk, and how Musk uses it to shape his own mythology. We explore the problems with how Musk interprets (and fails to interpret) sci-fi stories, and the ways sci-fi memes are deployed to justify the visions of the future tech billionaires are trying to realize. Annalee and Charlie Jane also share their thoughts on where they find hope in this moment, and how sc...

Ep. 119: Annalee Newitz, The Terraformers
The Terraformers blev udgivet i 2023. Bogen tager et stærkt afsæt i miljø og klimamæssige problemstillinger, men bruger en fantastisk setting. Bogen blev nomineret til en Nebula Award for bedste roman i 2024. I The Terraformers støder vi på et samfund af terraformers, som arbejder med at forberede et jordisk paradis på den private planet Sask-E for firmaet Verdance. Terraformerne er vidt forskellige.

"Stories Are Weapons" with Annalee Newitz
Best-selling author Annalee Newitz joins hosts Jim Ludes and Mark Jacobson for a discussion of Newitz's new book, Stories are Weapons: Psychological Warfare and the American Mind.

Ludes and Jacobson also share their top stories of the week--including the arrival of foreign governments using AI generated content...

365. Annalee Newitz with Lindy West: Stories are Weapons
Have you ever thought what #FakeNews might have looked like 200 years ago? While we may be experiencing a new era of disinformation, the tactics aren’t necessarily original. Drawing from their latest book, Stories Are Weapons, journalist and science fiction author Annalee Newitz traces back in history how disinformation, propaganda, and violent threats — all elements of psychological warfare — have evolved into tools of today’s domestic culture wars. Newitz argues that America has a deep-rooted history with psychological operations. Beginning with Benjamin Franklin’s Revolutionary War–era fake newspaper, then the nineteenth-century wars on Indigenous nations, Newit...

Annalee Newitz on How Stories are Weaponized
As a journalist and a science fiction writer, Annalee Newitz thinks a lot about the power of narrative and how it can change minds, “if a story can make you feel better or smarter, it can also make you feel worse and more confused. And if that story can change your behavior—whether in the voting booth or on the street—it becomes a weapon.” In their new book, "Stories Are Weapons," Newitz dives into the history and practice of psychological warfare and traces how the military tools of psyops – including propaganda and disinformation – have seeped into our lives. We’ll talk abo...

It allows creators to shine a light on the cultural struggles and social ills of the present by making powerful connections with the past, and by offering wonderful or horrifying visions of the future. Of course, it can also just be a whole lot of fun! But time travel is uniquely powerful as a tool for feminist writers; after all, feminism has always fought to prevent women’s contributions from being written out of history.
