What is Afrofuturism? I teach it at UCLA as Black science fiction, fantasy and horror. Whether it's the social science fiction of Octavia E. Butler or the fantasy worlds of @nkjemisin.bsky.social, it's art that enables us to hold up a funhouse mirror to our world to try to create a better one.

Calling all ATL Futurists!
-By SubSume studios
Afrofuturism entails all of us. We may be in different locations, but share similar a struggles. However, there is African-Futurism and AfroFuturism. Many of the top Afrofuturism writers are out of America 😊 We are all family! And Afrofuturism is what will bring all of us together
22.11.2024 16:33 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Black Panther in it's origins is not Afrofuturism. Black Panther is conditional Afrofuturism based on who is writing him at the time. White people can not write Afrofuturism. That's wild an academic would use that to theorize antiblackness
