How De We Create? A Reflection on Season 1 by Host Schetauna Powell

This episode reviews how the Afrofuturism in the A.M. podcast has changed since season 1 and shares Reflections and resources to accompany our meditation during season 2. Season Two of Afrofuturism in the A.M is a deepening of a process and I hope through your participation this process will deepen further still. I am interested in listening and implementing what was said to me in a meaningful way. To achieve this I have created supporting materials which you can access via my newsletter, website, and products. These resources support me in my design thinking practice, as I gear up to create objects that support future focused creatives just like me. If this resonates with you, consider supporting this podcast by sharing it , engaging through sending me a voice note, or funding it by visiting https://anchor.fm/afrofuturismxdesign/support. The links to support can be found in the episode description, in our episode notes, and on our supporting materials.

This House Endures: The Systems our Mothers Created

Our segment on Black Storytelling starts off with the narrative of Secunda, radio host of Imagine a World on All Real Radio located in 3rd Ward Houston, TX. We think through timelessness of childhood and come across the question: why are children policed and what does that do to joy? As we work our way through memories of childhood as it existed in the past vs. childhood as it exists now we begin to realize that the constant is Motherhood. We wrap our conversation with some musing on the shared story and how important it is to American Culture.
