[...]wave Afrofuturism/Afrofuturism 2.0 and the Black Speculative Arts Movement are indebted to previous movements like the Black Arts Movement (BAM), Negritude, The Harlem Renaissance, AfriCOBRA and other continental and diasporic African speculative movements (Anderson R. 2016).

In summation, the Curating the End of the World exhibition series serves as an online visual archive of the African diaspora experience in America during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the acceleration of capital to online platforms as working class people of color did not have the luxury of working from home, often functioning as front line workers that still had to pick up garbage and prepare or deliver food. [...]the exhibition also serves as a turning point in the formation of platform capitalism as Black digital artists began to demonstrate an increasing sophistication with blockchain technology, developing NFTs or Non-Fungible Tokens as an alternative to the traditional route of using art dealers, other elite outlets, or hegemonic platforms like Google and more that control their artistic expression.

If we don't want to face that reality of the billions of apocalypses both gone and current, and instead choose half measures that will take carbon from the air but leave the world a shattered and unequal place. then do we even deserve this precious planet? For many fearing climate change apocalypse, they fear their lives changing forever, their access to natural wonders canceled, their children's economic futures uncertain, their sacrifices of comfort and convenience in vain due to petty partisan politics. [...]the world has already ended several times. Perhaps that is a large part of the problem at hand: we need to learn how to radically reimagine the world that's possible.
