Lorraine O' Grady's writing lived off the page. Her juxtaposition of writing and public performance were reminders that fluidity can be photographed. The revelations are never-ending

The joy that comes from being in community around comics and Afrofuturism is undefeated. Thank you Pocketcon Chicago and AstroSankofa the synergy of energy.

Nikki Giovanni, Poet Who Wrote of Black Joy, Dies at 81 As a writer, she tackled race, gender, sex, politics and love. She was also a public intellectual who appeared on television and toured the country.

Nikki Giovanni. Her clarity cut through the bull. Her writing pierced the fog. Her poems are among the first I remember, the first I saw performed. She is the best, bold, and simply. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/09/o...

I see Afrofuturism...homage to Pedro Bell who did Pfunk album covers

Reading "Ramellzee: Racing for Thunder." This art book on the graffiti performance art legend keeps inspiring. Informed by futures, he interrogated the form of letters and created myth much like Sun Ra to elevate consciousness...his and ours. #Afrofuturism

"In the half-between world/Dwell they, the sound scientists/Mathematically precise/They speak of many things/The tone scientists/Architects of planes of discipline. "The Outer Bridge" poem by Sun Ra.

Or none of the above. Stories speak volumes funneled through the lens of the Storyteller and the frequency they abide by. Frequencies shift as do origin stories. Thoughts inspired by #Afrofuturism
