[10h] Africanfuturism, which centers Africa rather than the West, has its roots in a novel by this author set in the Saharan utopia Shavi. This author also wrote Second Class Citizen and The Joys of Motherhood.
ANSWER: Buchi Emecheta (The first novel is The Rape of Shavi.)
[10e] Because this fictional country’s first outpost is in Oakland, California, Okorafor defines it as Afrofuturism rather than Africanfuturism. This country is led by T’Challa.
