Earthseed Afrofuturist Lab

Web Content Research - Writer - Podcast Host

Earthseed is an Afrofuturist digital humanities research project at the intersection of Black Media Studies, Digital Media, and Science Fiction Studies, inspired by the philosophy of prescient science-fiction legend Octavia E. Butler.

During the 2021-2022 academic year, Earthseed’s digital media hub grew to include the following aspects that I was responsible for was the research and creation of an extensive multiple-disciplinary bibliography of Afrofuturist work, a detailed interactive timeline of the history of Afrofuturism as an epistemology, intellectual field, and cultural movement, with special attention to often overlooked Afrofuturist women, non-binary, and LGBTQIA people in the field; interviews with contemporary Afrofuturist meaning-makers on our Earthseed podcast; and a blog with attention to current events and news in Afrofuturism.
