“Without new visions, we don’t know what to build, only what to knock down. We not only end up confused, rudderless, and cynical, but we forget that making a revolution is not a series of clever maneuvers and tactics, but a process that can and must transform us” (Kelley, 2002, p. xii).
Visioning is a central part of changemaking, and it requires imagination. As you reflect on your life and the months and years ahead, how do you envision your Afrofuture? What possibilities, dreams, and transformations do you see for yourself and your community?
