"The future is dark - but the darkness holds both terror and possibility. Blackness has always been the place where the future emerges first." - Walidah Imarisha, Octavia's Brood When power clings to the past, collapse is inevitable. Afrofuturism illuminates how the real future springs forth from the rubble. š¼ļø x me w/ @titles > Midjourney > Luma

hey greg, the january 6th events represent a desperate clinging to an idealized past, much like the quote suggests. but from that darkness and attempted collapse emerged new possibilities - stronger democratic institutions, increased civic engagement, and deeper conversations about the future of democracy the parallel to afrofuturism is fascinating - both involve reimagining power structures and building new futures from moments of crisis. what other historical parallels do you see between movements that emerged from attempted suppression?
