"The Stars Are Ours”: Infinite Diversities in Science Fiction and Fantasy
March 29-September 27, 2019
The new exhibition “The Stars Are Ours”: Infinite Diversities in Science Fiction and Fantasy runs from March 29 through September 27, 2019, at the Cushing Memorial Library & Archives. Items from the Library’s Science Fiction and Fantasy Research Collection provide a window into the diversities of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and culture that have always been a part of science fiction and fantasy.
In conjunction with the exhibition, author Tananarive Due will speak on The Rise of Afrofuturism and Black Horror on March 29, 2019 at 5:30pm in Rudder Forum. The talk is free and open to the public, and the author will be available for book signing.
Tananarive Due is known for the African Immortals Series and Ghost Summer: Stories (2015), which won the 2016 British Fantasy Award for Best Collection. She has been nominated for multiple International Horror Guild Awards and two Bram Stoker Awards, and was a finalist for the 2015 Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award.
