Afrofuturism

[close] We read the works of African, African American & BIPOC science fiction, fantasy, and Afrofuturist authors, and meet monthly via Zoom.

[close] Do you enjoy reading works from Octavia Butler or Nnedi Okorafor and dream of creating stories like theirs someday? Are you looking for a group of like-minded pro-black writers like you? Then you've come to the right place! This group is for writers of Afrofuturism who want a safe support group of other writers including but not limited to the genres of: African American Sci Fi, Afro-fantasy, Black Speculative Fiction, Afro Cyber Punk, etc. We know that there is a need and demand for black stories to be told. We mold our raci and turn it into liberation. Which is all the more reason why a group like this is important! In this group we: -Share tips & tricks on writing, promoting books, and more -Critique each other's works -Network with other writers -Engage in workshops, events, and other festivities And most importantly, we just HAVE FUN!

[close] Hey everyone, We are a digital community of people (you + us) interested in discovering and immersing in Black authored speculative works. Our goal is to broaden the imaginations and expressions of identities and cultures, especially those of African descent. As such, we are so glad to have you on this journey with us. We exist to push for the representation of narratives that are on the outskirts of digital and printed media. At Afrinomenon, we celebrate the diverse expressions and explorations of Black identities in works of science fiction and fantasy. This is a place for us to discuss our monthly book picks. So hang around with us if you are interested in discovering new authors and reading together. We look forward to getting to know you and would love to hear your thoughts and opinions. After the book is announced, the Afrinomenon team will post a few questions here to guide our reading. You can also stay engaged with us on Instagram @afrinomenon and check out our playlists Join us, invite your friends, and hangout with us! Cheers, Afrinomenon
