2043... a Merman I Should Turn to Be by Nisi Shawl

2.0

A very interesting premise that never quite gets off the ground. African American's being able to be modified and given 40 acres is a great concept. However most of the story focused on the opposition these new mermaids faced. It's not farfetched to imagine that racist would still try to harm racial minorities under the sea, however I thought that was focused on too much. And the ending was confusing and disheartening
