Well, I’ve always looked at it as an art genre. I’ve been collecting and reading comics since I first learned to read, and video games since I was old enough to reach the joy stick. Not to mention artist like PM Dawn, Gumbo, and Dream Warriors. Post-Apocalyptic is my favorite movie genre; so when ever any Black imagry or characters emerged in any of that shit, I gravitated towards it and supported it; that was my Afrofuturisim. I had...
No. Not at all. The concepts of Race and the ideology and practices of Racism are not permanent, they haven’t even been with humanity for a significant amount of our history. Look at other systems and ideologies, like monarchy; there was a time when essentially all organized populations in the world were under some form of monarchy, not there’s barely any; 2-3 monarchical nations out of over 200 hundred nations! By the end of this...
As a spectator or consumer of AF arts and literature I am. I been down with Afrofuturism before I even know what it was or the proper term for it, I consumed as much of it as I could get my hands on as a youth, up to now.
In fact the Republicans are so bat shit crazy right now because the Democrats totally stole their platform; welfare reform, military budget inflation, privatization of every fucking thing, pro-corporate trade deals, mass incarceration, private insurance mandates, labor union subversion, etc. The Dems under the Clintons didn’t leave the Republicans shit to run on but God, anti-gays, anti-abortion, and old school Racism.

Focusing on them is like trying to sue the dog instead of the owner when you get bit. They don’t have their own ideas and positions, they just ape what Massa say, they are simply Black Apologist for White Oppression, and as much as I love cracking on Uncle Toms and New Negros, I don’t always have time to. Get a...
I’m gonna vote for Bernie on March 15th, and the man said he’s gonna ride this shit all the way to the Democratic Convention; so I think his supporters should as well. I don’t get emotionally invested in US electoral politics so I don’t fell hope or pessimism about his chances, I will respond accordingly if he wins, or if he loses. The Black Struggle Continues regardless. I still think it’s too early to call if for Hillary just...
As far as a healthy life, I think it’s obvious why anyone would want to be healthy in life, so I don’t think I gotta get into the value of physical and mental health regardless of one’s acceptance or rejection of any Gods.As far as “righteousness:” reason, logic, and evolution gives as much weight to the necessity and value of being good as any fictional construct and dogmas.Humans are the most socially dependent creatures on this...
