Tabula Rasa: We are all Born Equal in our Insignificance. by J Ishiro Finney EPUB

After two years of living homeless, the Grid has lost all interest in me. To them, I’m just another castoff. A blank. Human waste. Another unwanted byproduct of this modern, civilized world. This city is famous for its population of forgotten and unwanted. These rags I wear, this filth on my skin, the cruel hunger that’s so evident in my sunken, boney face—these things grant me untold freedom to walk among the enemy. Poverty has made me a ghost. Invisible.

Never once has National Surveillance Grid suspected that I am the culmination of more than half a century of black budget projects and forbidden research. Born of two mothers and twenty-seven fathers, my family tree is a string of recombinant DNA where the chromosomes of soldiers and saints share nucleotides with the genes of criminals and politicians. I am a Brother. A ten-year-old man who was perfected in a lab, born from a whore, and raised to be mankind’s redeemer.

And today I will die.

Tabula Rasa is a terrifyingly poetic dystopian tale about when bio-terrorism becomes the "final solution" to solving the so-called "intersectional problems" of race, class, and gender.
