AFROFuturism Dirty Words

By Stafford Battle

In AFROFuturism Dirty Word!, the reader will engage with raunchy ramblings, sex-crazed speculations, dark fantasies, visually offensive offal, and radical racial rage. It is an illustrated collection of speculative stories and poems written by Stafford L Battle for over 30 years. His literary and illustrative exposition explores the science and sorcery of the Black experience in historical narratives and the sci-fi future of things to come.

AFROFuturism is more than an academic retelling of Black tragedies in the Western world. Dirty Words thrust readers into realms that will appall, enlighten, and intrigue. A Black sheriff with dangerous abilities in the Wild West can stop bullets. A beautiful aunt can travel intergalactic space to seduce an African demon. A ferocious teenager will kill ancient reptilian monsters to save his grandma and get a strong drink. And what if Abraham Lincoln was the real evil villain causing the death of millions of soldiers?

This is AFRO speculative fiction, exploring the “What If” using mature language and adult themes and being unafraid to expose complex realities.

The message of the tales is that if we rely on intellectual reflection, perseverance, and luck, we can create a better future for everyone, regardless of perceived race or culture.

We are all African.
