This conversation delves into the influential Afrofuturist mythology of Drexciya through the visionary lens of Abdul Qadim Haqq, creator of the Book of Drexciya comic series. Known for his vibrant portrayal of submerged worlds and Black resistance, Haqq’s work blends science fiction, electronic music, and African diasporic history to forge a powerful narrative that resonates with contemporary issues of race, identity, and creativity. In this discussion, Haqq explores the cultural impact of Drexciya‘s imaginative universe, tracing its roots in Afrofuturism and examining how it continues to shape artistic dialogues and inspire future generations. Presented in collaboration with the MSU African Studies Center’s 65th anniversary celebration and WKAR Public Media, this event highlights Drexciya’s lasting significance within the intersections of art, history, and speculative thought.
