The Afrofuturism - Black Live Matters project proposes to research the history of Afrofuturism in the Canadian art scene over the last decade. Specifically, this research team will be collecting and analyzing sources on Black diasporic visual artistic practice in Canada located at the intersection of Afrofuturism, Black Lives Matter, critical race feminism, and the self-fashioned ethnic avatar. Our primary objective is to create a robust speculative research archive that the Principal Investigator, her students, and the wider scholarly and practitioner community can use to initiate or continue to further research activities rooted in the exchange of solidarity work. ABLM is a SSHRC funded research collective under the supervision of Dr. Alice Ming Wai Jim |
