MY DEFINITION OF AFRO-FUTURISM
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN A BIT OF A NERD WHEN IT COMES TO SCI-FI AND MOVIES, ESPECIALLY SUPERHERO ACTION FILMS AND COMIC BOOKS. I'VE ALWAYS BEEN ATTRACTED TO THE IDEA OF THE "ANTI-HERO". IT RESONATES WITH ME BECAUSE IT'S HOW I SEE MYSELF IN A LOT OF WAYS AS A BLACK MAN LIVING IN A AMERICA. THERE ARE SO MANY WAYS I FEEL LIKE AN OUTCAST IN SOCIETY AND AT ODDS WITH THE MASSES, HOWEVER STRUGGLE IS PART OF MY DNA. THE RESILIENCE OF BLACK PEOPLE IS LIKE A SUPER POWER. ALL OF THESE LEADERS BEFORE ME HAVE BEEN LIKE HEROES FIGHTING FOR A CAUSE, BUT NOW IT'S OUR TURN TO EMBODY THE DREAMS OF OUR ANCESTORS AND BECOME HEROES FOR A NEW GENERATION.
