What if the “Black” futures were theorized from Africa? What if the trajectory was reversed that way? This two-day workshop on 19 and 20 March 2026 brings together an international group of scholars and writers to facilitate critical encounters and build connections between different Afrofuturist traditions of literary, cultural and artistic production from African and Afrodiasporic contexts. Most prominently, the workshop aims to bridge a critical gap between different Afrofuturist traditions and to broaden the theoretical reflection of Afrofuturist visions of the future. Panel discussions will be open to interested students and guests. Please contact the organizers for details.
