Uncanny Magazine Issue 33: March/April 2020 by Chimedum Ohaegbu, Elsa Sjunneson, Michael Damian Thomas, Lynne M. Thomas
3.0
Total average rating for three stories:
"If You Want to Erase Us, You Must Be Thorough" by L. Tu. ****
It's about genocide and colonialism, removal of identities and indoctrination. I really, really want to talk to the author on how they got the inspiration. I feel like I should know.

"Georgie in the Sun" by Natalia Theodoridou **
Vlad Tepes in space. Did not work for me. Nice try, though.
"The Sycamore and the Sybil" by Alix E. Harrow ***
Maybe I should have liked it more but I just did not find anything fresh from the vengeance-themed story. Harrow is always good with her prose - no complaint from me in that department - but I expected a more exciting plot/conclusion.
