520    Comprising elements of the avant-garde, science fiction, 
       cutting-edge hip-hop, black comix, and graphic novels, 
       Afrofuturism spans both underground and mainstream pop 
       culture. With a twofold aim to entertain and enlighten, 
       Afrofuturists strive to break down racial, ethnic, and all
       social limitations to empower and free individuals to be 
       themselves. This book introduces readers to the burgeoning
       artists creating Afrofuturist works, the history of 
       innovators in the past, and the wide range of subjects 
       they explore. From the sci-fi literature of Samuel Delany,
       Octavia Butler, and NK Jemisin to the musical cosmos of 
       Sun Ra, George Clinton, and the Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am,
       to the visual and multimedia artists inspired by African 
       Dogon myths and Egyptian deities, topics range from the 
       alien experience of blacks in America to the wake up cry 
       that peppers sci-fi literature, sermons, and activism. 
       Interviews with rappers, composers, musicians, singers, 
       authors, comic illustrators, painters, and DJs, as well as
       Afrofuturist professors, provide a firsthand look at this 
       fascinating movement.
