Episode Synopsis

Octavia Butler is considered the mother of afrofuturism, a genre of science fiction developed by, about, and for primarily African Americans in the United States. In her essential two part Earthseed Chronicles, Butler introduces the reader to a young girl who envisions a new religion, a new community, and a new future. Rev. Nic will reflect on the power and impact afrofuturism has played on our ability to imagine new worlds where all can not merely survive, but thrive!
