The Past is Never Past
Many reviews of the film Black Panther (2018) source its popularity to its Afrofuturism. Contemporary ardency might also stem from the movie's resonance with past ideas, as well. Black Panther engages long‐established Afrofuturist themes and owes a debt to the nineteenth- and turn‐of‐the‐twentieth‐century black speculative fiction of Martin R.

The Color Purple
THE COLOR PURPLE is not only a novel in which black women make an inhospitable male environment amenable to their growth and development, it is also an epistolary novel in which black women take a form traditionally inhospitable to oral cultures, the written word, and transform it, making it, too, responsive to their needs.
