<p class="MsoNormal">The future is African. By 2050, Africa will be home to 10 megacities. By 2100, one in three people on our planet will be African. This course examines the notion of African futures and its implications for the Continent, Diaspora, and the
world at large, drawing from an interdisciplinary body of scholarship that includes history, literature, film, social and digital media, and the arts. We will explore topics such as decolonization and postcolonialism, Afropolitanism and African futurism, and
technologies and digitalization in Africa.<o:p></o:p></p>
