Afrofuturism: Re-writing the African Narrative | Masi Mbewe | TEDxUniversityofNamibia
Growing up Masi read a lot of books, mostly children's story books and romantic novels as she got older. She realized what she read was mostly content stemming from the 1st world (US or Europe). Not many of the books were ever really of African origin, this wasn't for a lack of material but rather a lack of exposure. In this talk Masi explains what Afro-futurism is and how it can help propel the African culture and essence across the continent in all forms especially media
