What if your future dreams for society became the dominant narrative for hope in the present? How do we imagine a more liberated future for ourselves? This discussion group and creative workshop led by Black Magnolias will use speculative fiction—Afrofuturism, science fiction and fantasy—as a tool to create new worlds of hope and change. Participants will be engaged in using ideas of limitless technology, fantasy, and science to rewrite the world and walk away with a sci-fi story that replaces negative narratives with possibility and power.
