Using the novel Nova by Samuel R. Delany, Comics of the Black Panther, the film “Get Out”,the novel Fledgling by Octavia Butler, and Ytasha Womack’s novel Afrofuturism discuss the significance of one major theme, image, or stylistic feature in Afrofuturist cultural production. Be sure to explicitly identify and define the theme (e.g. queerness, space travel, violence, sexism, environmentalism, etc.), image or symbol (e.g. androids, astronauts, vampires, zombies, etc.), or the stylistic feature (e.g. free indirect discourse, direct address, slang, first person) and explain why this feature is key to understanding Afrofuturism.
