I really liked the section where Nicole Miller talks about creating reality in the minds of others insofar as she manipulates representation. And the way that is conjuncted with the following discussion about how to arrive at a given vision of the future, say Afrofuturism, by constantly imagining and reinforcing the images and stories and so on that could characterize such a society.
Black people are allowed to be intellectual even to the point of banality. This is a great look into black culture and aesthetic. The turm hipster was first coined to describe whites who participated in and associated with black spaces and cultural centers. Idk I’m too tired to go on.
is the raw footage of Delroy Edwards available? Would be really interested in seeing him giving a guide through his studio - which it seems he's doing at around 29:44.
The only problem we Africans have,had nothing to do with anything outside of ourselves. The only power in the cosmos is intelligence , but the way that power manifests depends on the possessor of the intelligence. I’m the possessor what I do with my mind is what determines its power. Then I have to face the world with the mind I’ve developed. So I determine where I am in the intelligence food chain, and the “world” reacts to my self created state. Africans inherited great natural wealth from Mother Nature. That Natural wealth. retarded our technological development.people from the northern parts of the planet did not have the luxury of endless natural abundance, as a result they “, Europe,and north Asia were forced to use their intelligence To provide what we in the tropics took for granted😮 Now we are ina position where we have to use our minds to create a man made economy in a way our ancestors never had to😮and black futurism is the mental foundation for that🤓
This is whack. I'm an Afrofuturist. I'm actually a Negrofuturist. This isn't anything more than what Derry did when he coined the original term. This is attempting to validate hipster art school stuff that can't get curated under a brand... Mundane Afrofuturism. and the irony is that I love the work... I love the music... I love the experimental films... i honesty love their work and their passion, but it's not Afrofuturism and it's especially mundane because it isn't what it claims to be. I'm new to the game, but you all could be so powerful if you did it...
The talk abt liberation being incremental was the most off center thing to me. Revolutionary Liberation can’t be incremental. We are either free or not. Everything else is house nigga privileges.
This video should be called "The Mundane Euroblack Present Mistake". the hour-long special examines the tension between being of African origin but wanting to be a White Hipster.

Thank you for this episode, it's really guided me during this period of my semester.
Thankyou so much! The feeling behind this is very well expressed and resonates with what I feel here from Brazil.
Woohooooooo!!! ❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏾🥳🥳🥳🥳👀🤩

Great documentary. Interesting the amount of trolls in the comments section.
Awesome video. I am really interested by this initiative. It is international or only in the US?
Genius.

Wow. That’s an incredibly clear perspective. I’m going to hold onto that. Thank you.

This is a regressive manifesto, I see this as a tether on the black imagination.

I was feeling the same way during a bit of it.
I'm curious. How did you come to this conclusion?
