I'm looking for sci-fi books (stand-alone or series books are fine) that have some good social justice/racial equity/feminist/queer-friendly/trans-friendly etc messages or themes. Bonus points for books by authors of color and/or people who aren't men!

My 13 year old nephew, who is quite bright and a prodigious reader, has asked for "a sci-fi book" (no additional details) for Christmas. He's probably a sufficiently advanced reader that young adult or adult books (avoiding graphic sex or violence or terror) would be fine. One of my preferred strategies with my step kids and other folks is to use books to nudge them in a social-justice-y direction, so I'm likely to use this for gifts for a variety of kids in the future too, so don't limit yourself to books"boys might like" or whatever!
