”Speculative fiction that treat African-American themes and addresses Afro-American concerns in the context of twentieth-century technoculture — and, more generally, African-American signification that appropriates images of technology and a prostethically enhanced future — might, for want of a better word, be called ‘Afrofuturism.'”
Citerat ur Black to the Future av Mark Dery, som myntade begreppet Afrofuturism 1992. Fenomenet är däremot betydligt äldre.
