Cited in Wanda Raiford's "Race, Robots, and the Law," New Boundaries in Political Science Fiction. Donald M. Hassler and Clyde Wilcox, editors. Columbia, SC: U of South Carolina Press, 2008:[1] pp. 103-04, 112. Raiford notes that Short "calls attention to the fact that" in both Star Trek: The Next Generation, "The Measure of a Man" and Asimov's "The Bicentennial Man," "'a woman of color is [...] ... responsible for articulating and defending the rights of others in a fictional future" (quoting Short p. 216; Raiford p. 104).
