Also try NK Jamisin. Lots of diverse characters there, including afro-centric futurism in the Broken Earth Trilogy.

Reply to ELI5 What is cognitive dissonance? by dreamingonastar1
It is having an ingrained belief that is challenged by reality or an experience but still cannot be changed - as in, your brain cannot overwrite what it thinks it “knows” no matter what is presented to you, so you reject or twist new information to make it make sense in your reality.
So like everyone else is on reality 2.0, but your brain stays in beta, rejecting crucial updates.
