Butler's 1979 sci-fi novel ''Kindred,'' in which an African-American writer is transported back in time to the antebellum South to save her owner-ancestor, ''Unpayable debt'' relates the notion of value to coloniality—both economic and ethical. Focusing on the philosophy behind value, Denise Ferreira da Silva exposes capital as the juridical architecture and ethical grammar of the world. Here, raciality—a symbol of coloniality—justifies deployments of total violence to enable expropriation and land extraction.
