From the Instructor: Black Speculative Fiction - an exploration of race, gender, space, technology and alternative histories through a Black feminist framework. The course will organize the discussion of literature, space, race and gender in order to challenge dominant narratives around what makes a hero, who produces scientific knowledge, and how Black people fit into science fiction.
