It's crazy what the times are doing. I'll post an article about when I first was inspired to write the piece. First it was conceptual, based off of a grim hypothetical that someone contrived "as a solution" to the "immigrant problem." But then life slowly began to imitate art.
And without spoiling anything to, in regards to you comments about the victimization narrative, let's just say, I agree with you. I very much agree with you. But before a story reaches the light, it has to start in the dark. And this story is a bit darker than you currently know.
This is interesting.
We need more films and series in the science-fiction genre as a collective.
"The Decade of Grandeur" — a phrase that could define the political landscape of 2025.
In my assessment, sci-fi is a playground for a culturally bold imagination.
It’s an untapped space for black storytellers willing to push the boundaries of race, power, and politics.
It’ll be interesting to see where you take it creatively.
I personally would like to see more of a daring approach in the genre.
From struggle to complete power storylines — instead of victimization.
If any genre could bear the weight of such ambition, it’s science fiction.
Keep going.
Nice work.
Thank you for watching!
