520    "A richly illustrated exploration of Black culture at its 
       most wildly imaginative and artistically ambitious... 
       assembles art and imagery from across the African 
       diaspora. Embracing the mythic and the speculative, it 
       recycles and reconfigures elements of fable, folklore, 
       science fiction, spiritual traditions, ceremonial 
       pageantry and the legacies of Afrofuturism. In works that 
       span photography, painting, sculpture, cinema, graphic 
       arts, music and architecture, [the book] shows how 
       speculative fictions in Black art and culture are boldly 
       reimagining perspectives on race, gender and identity. 
       Standing apart from Western narratives of progress and 
       modernity premised on the historical subjugation of people
       of color, it celebrates the ways that Black artists draw 
       inspiration from African-originated myths, beliefs and 
       knowledge systems, confounding the Western dichotomy 
       between the real and unreal, the scientific and the 
       supernatural. This lavishly illustrated volume brings 
       together works by leading artists such as Kara Walker, 
       Chris Ofili and Ellen Gallagher; explores groundbreaking 
       films such as Daughters of the Dust and Get Out; considers
       the radical politics of pan-Africanism and 
       postcolonialism; and much more. Each section ... includes 
       an introductory text by Ekow Eshun and longer essays by 
       Eshun, Kameelah L. Martin, and Michelle D. Commander."--
