Black Futures // Edited by Kimberly Drew and Jenna Wortham // 1st Edition 1st Printing 2020 // Hardcover Book
One World New York: 1st Edition, 1st Printing, 2020.
An incredible book that features contributions from hundreds of Black artists, poets, writers, designers, musicians, chefs, and so on.
"In developing Black Futures, we sought to answer the question: what does it mean to be Black and alive right now?"
"Black Futures is not designed to be a comprehensive document. Blackness is infinite -- a single book cannot attempt to contain the multitudes and multiverse. This is just one manifestation of a project that spans millennia."
"This is not an art book. This is not a scholarly journal. This book is a series of guideposts for current and future generations who may be curious about what our generation had been creating during our time defined by social, cultural, economic, and ecological revolution."
"On these pages you'll find screenshots, original essays, manifestos, memes, artworks, poems, song lyrics, recipes, and creations of all types..."
Good condition overall with a bit of wear and tear to the covers and spine. A little bit of sticker residue on the top right-hand corner of the front cover. Pencil marking on the second page. Large bend/crease to the last page in the book.
