This article says that you cannot find truth in fiction. I strongly disagree,fiction is based on our realities; they are the fears and fantasies that we harbor in our minds and can reflect certain aspects of our society. To say that fiction and art are to be taken as lies and just that suggest that we are incapable of understanding and interpreting the metaphor that represents real life. Racism in space is still racism, using current events to try a peek at the future is not going to be accurate. The insite it can provide is however very telling. How the future looks to the individual writing the story and through this we can find the present. The lenses they see through can color the future and this glimpse of life from their perspective is important . Think about all the classic books we read in life. We don't read them for their accuracy, we read them for the insight and thought provoking ideas present.

The unknowing participant in othering is a nefarious character because, in ignorance, they are comfortable and can hide from the realities of being the other. These types of people choose not to see the ugly truth of life for others, hoping that if they stay out of it, they are not part of the problem. They find safety and comfort in keeping their eyes shut to the lives of the "other". While hoping nobody is actually being hurt so they can hide in complacency out of the danger of having to do something or say something. Reluctance to see injustice makes it easier to see the "other" not as a person but as a hypothetical which is a dangerous place to stand. The other does not have feelings; it cannot feel pain, so it cannot suffer. As such, it is not worth thinking about. Justifying inaction, and now they are safe, making their home in the quiet violence of willful ignorance. Learning about the suffering of others will never be comfortable, it will never be happy, and it will never be easy, but choosing to see only the easy, the happy, and the comfortable is just as bad as looking into the face of the other and laughing at their otherness. By looking away, you let them continue. Are you will to look?

The idea of self interrogation, i think works in theory, although for it to be effective they have to have the awareness of a potentially dubious way of thinking. Otherwise they can find themself reinforcing that way of thinking rather than combating the idea of the hypothetical "them".
