Masiyaleti Mbewe is a Zambian post-futurist writer, photographer and activist. She was raised in Botswana and is currently based in Namibia. She’s a former copywriter currently working as a freelance writer and activist in Namibia. Her photographic work in the Future African Visions In Time (FAVT) Exhibition entitled ‘The Afrofuturist Village’ aimed to navigate an alternative future for Africans in afrofuturism. Elements of language, cultural exchange and representation of the black body in afrofuturism are heavy themes in the work. The project, which ran in 2018 from the 21st of February to the 2nd of March spoke on diversity, equality and the politics of an inter-sectional afrofuture and was met with critical acclaim.


Keep a look out for our interview regarding her work and views on African futurism in current media.
