Afrofuturism: A History of Black Futures immerses visitors in a conversation that reimagines, reinterprets and reclaims the past and present for a more empowering future for African Americans.
What is Afrofuturism? Afrofuturism expresses notions of Black identity, agency and freedom through art, creative works and activism that envision liberated futures for Black life.
Using more than 100 objects from music, film, television, comic books, fashion, theater, literature and more, our museum's latest exhibition covers more than a century of Afrofuturism’s rich history of expression and investigates its impact and broad influence on American culture.
