Center for the Humanities // College of Liberal Arts
Reynoldo Anderson. Afrofuturism and World Order

Join us for a riveting discussion with Associate Professor of Africology and African American Studies, Dr. Reynaldo Anderson on his book Afrofuturism and World Order.

In Afrofuturism and World Order, Reynaldo Anderson delves into the evolution of Black speculative thought and Afrofuturism from the early twentieth century to the present day. By locating Afrofuturism within an African geography of reason, he situates the past, present, and future of people of African descent at the intersection of speculative philosophy, science fiction, futurology, artificial intelligence, climate change, and geopolitics. - The Ohio State University Press

Anderson is the co-founder of the Black Speculative Arts Movement and a prolific writer and editor on the subject of Afrofuturism. He has been sought for his expertise by The New York Times, Time MagazineCarnegie Hall and the United Nations.
