Love of a Black Planet: Afrofuturist Poetry

Delving into the dynamic intersection of Afrofuturism, Black comics, and poetry, editors and contributors to the anthology, The Future of Black, converse about how Black poets are using speculative narratives, cosmic visions, and superhero archetypes to reimagine the future of Black identity, culture, and resistance. They'll share their creative processes and ways in which they've employed verse to envision alternative futures. This will be an exciting discussion of visionary thought, cultural commentary, and literary craft.

Panelists include Teri Ellen Cross Davis, Gary Jackson, and Cynthia Manick, moderated by Sarah Buckner.
