Call for Submissions: Feminist Africa 2021 (Deadline September 1):

Feminist Africa Vol 3 Issue 1 explores how diverse portrayals of gender, sexuality, and feminism in the African Futurism genre complicate understandings of the lived realities, past and present, of women living on the continent. Contributors are invited to explore how Africa-centered conceptions of technology, time and space, and the invocation of African spirits and deities, are used to imagine the African superheroes presented in comic books, fiction, film, digital art, photography and games.
