Help INVISIBLE UNIVERSE get to the next round for the 2013 AbelCine Documentary Grant!
Invisible Universe: a history of blackness in speculative fiction explores the relationship between the Black body and popular fantasy, horror and science fiction literature and film and the alternative perspectives produced by creators of color. This documentary features interviews with major writers, scholars, artists and filmmakers and explores comics, television, film and literature by deconstructing stereotyped images of Black people in the genres. The Invisible Universe documentary ultimately reveals how Black creators have been consciously creating their own universe.
This is so AWESOME and IMPORTANT and just AUGH can you imagine having such an awesome resource if you get a stupid “can you rec any POC SF” question in the future you can be like “HERE IS A WHOLE DOCUMENTARY YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOW”
