We are starting to talk #Utopia with Ingrid LaFleur MSU #SUS2019 MSU College of Arts & Letters MSU English Dept
The impact of #HBCUs on Ingrid LaFleur vision of #Afrofuturism was profound. It is incredible to hear her talk about Spelman College and the frameworks she found in conversation in these spaces.

Loving hearing Ingrid LaFleur share personal reflections on her relationship with utopia and Afrofuturism, narrating her journey from seven-year old self encountering utopia as a "feeling" to a deeply engaged and embodied Afrofuturist practice #SUS2019
Ingrid LaFleur discusses her vision of pleasure activism: living by the pleasure principle, infusing pleasure/humanity esp. in function-focused tech world, giving out/receiving joy ("cyclical nature of pleasure," which feels good but can also do real good in the world). #sus2019
.Ingrid LaFleur's keynote talk on Afrofuturism at Society for Utopian Studies conference was so enlightening and affirming. Her analysis of decentralized autonomous communities as the way forward for imagining a utopia into existence is so relevant. #SUS2019
Ingrid LaFleur Also kudos to her for making a room full of boring academics jive to this to welcome what she calls the Afrotopia. youtube.com/watch?v=lPe09e… I have been playing this one non-stop after returning to my hotel room.
