Define AFROFUTURISM

Afrofuturism emphasizes the intersection of black cultures while exploring imagination, liberation, gender fluidity, feminism, political resistance, and technology. It is a movement in literature, art, music, etc., featuring futuristic or science fiction themes that incorporate elements of black history and culture. With the prior lack of representation of black characters in science fiction and fantasy, many writers and artists felt that black people were seen as “having no future” and that their only stories were only rooted in the past. It is an intersectional lens through which to view possible futures or alternate realities. It is meant to draw from black experiences of the past and the present to create representative art of the future.
