Research Note: Afrofuturism

"In the early 1990's, Mark Dery argued that 'African Americans, in a very real sense, are the descendants of alien abductees; they inhabit a sci-fi nightmare in which unseen but no less impassable force fields of intolerance frustrate their movements' (Dery 1994, p. 180)."
