Definitely. I think African futurism and the interdisciplinary genre and movement hold a lot of promise for the imaginaries of our people. - Sylvia Tamale

Now, never underestimate the power of the mind. What African futurism does is harness that power into action. It empowers us to craft the future that we want.

I believe in a just a fair world, where I am not subservient to another because we differ in color, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age.

Despite the debilitating legacies of slavery and colonialism that continue to hold our continent and perpetuate global geopolitical and economic imbalances, I think Africa will inevitably rise like those many heads of the hydra whereby you strike one and another one that is twice as strong emerges.
