Exactly! As Octavia Butler herself said, “To try to foretell the future without studying history is like trying to learn to read without bothering to learn the alphabet.” Black women’s leadership is not born of magic but of careful observation, lived experience, and radical imagination.

If you haven’t read Octavia Butler’s novel recently (or at all), you might want to.
Parable of the Sower begins in 2024. I remember being so frightened when I read it in 1995. Horror had nothing on Lauren's nightmarish world.
Called someone I was talkin to at the time. "It's just a story!" And in 1995 when we were almost-but-not-quite 18, yes, it was just a story.
29 years later.
