Also an Afrofuturist Period Room at the Met that is part of the permanent collection. bsky.app/profile/carn...
There was a more full Afrofuturism exhibition at the Met earlier this year but they still have an Afrofuturist period room. It’s on the first floor. It’s a reimagining and honoring of Seneca Village, the African American community that was eviscerated to build Central Park.
