After reading “How Afrofuturism Can Help the World Mend” by C. Brandon Ogbunu, it’s easy to put the dominance of Afrofuturism had a deep impact because of the message the movement had. It had an overall aspect of global healing thus in order to help with the future of humanity. It takes on issues such as social, political, and environmental. With shifting the attention to Du Bois the implement of his storytelling reflects on the racism that is very much relevant in today’s society. The story telling aspect does leave an impact that the world is yet to change, setting in an apocalyptic environment is supposed to be a sign of a call to action. Especially in an setting of New York which as everyone knows has a large demographic. Thus trying to persuade the reader in taking action in of hopes shaping a better future.
