The ideas and practices related to afrofuturism have existed for
most of the 20th century, especially in the north American African
diaspora community. After Mark Dery coined the word "afrofuturism"
in 1993, Alondra Nelson as a member of an online forum, along with
other participants, began to explore the initial terrain and
intellectual underpinnings of the concept noting that "AfroFuturism
has emerged as a term of convenience to describe analysis,
criticism and cultural production that addresses the intersections
between race and technology." Afrofuturism 2.0: The Rise of
Astroblackness represents a transition from previous ideas related
to afrofuturism that were formed in the late 20th century around
issues of the digital divide, music and literature. Afrofuturism
2.0 expands and broadens the discussion around the concept to
include religion, architecture, communications, visual art,
philosophy and reflects its current growth as an emerging global
Pan African creative phenomenon.
