Envisioning Differently: Afrofuturism and Visual Methods As Tools for Expansive Storytelling

Join us for an engaging webinar with Dr. Laura K. Porterfield that explores Afrofuturism and its intersection with photography and visual thinking. Learn how these methodologies were integrated into an honors course and discover digital and arts-based techniques like photovoice and photo-essays. Participants will gain insights on incorporating storytelling methods into your own research and coursework. Don't miss this chance to expand your horizons with visual storytelling!

***Suggested reading - check out  “What is the truth?” (Porterfield, 2024) and alongside Jemisin’s “Give me cornbread or give me death" (Jemisin, 2022) for an introduction to methodology, form, and genre.
