Examines Black creative works that express futuristic spaces of radical possibility and radical imagination, often loosely termed "Afrofuturism." Afrofuturism encompasses a network of Black artists who are geographically diverse and whose creative explorations are located at the intersection of art, technoculture, and Black identity. These visual artists, writers, musicians, and filmmakers engage different mediums and technologies to articulate new futures through a Black cultural lens, often with a space-age theme. Throughout this course, we will trace the Afrofuturist point of view in 20th and 21st century Black speculative fiction, film, music, and the visual arts. We will analyze fiction by authors like Octavia Butler and Samuel R. Delany, study artworks by Wangechi Mutu, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Yinka Shonibare, explore the music and visual output by Sun Ra, Parliament Funkadelic, and Janelle Mone and consider films such as "Black Panther."
