This paper draws on a decolonial intersectional feminist lens to discuss the importance of Afrofuturism – specifically Afrofuturistic literature as a way of organising resistance in a colonial apocalypse or colonial continuum. In particular, the paper mobilizes the contention of Marimba Ani (2024) that the precolonial African individual and group identities—expressed through art, literature, spiritual and magic beliefs and customs can support Black people as they navigate this postcolonial apocalypse into a future imagined by and for them. In exploring the importance of Afrofuturistic literature in navigating the present continuum and reimagining the future, Tomi Adeyemi’s fantasy novel, Children of Blood and Bone is centred here. I explore Adeyemi’s use of memory work as a creative means of resistance that mobilizes themes of apocalypse and identity to bridge Africa’s past and present, and to reimagine a decolonial future. Through art and literature, supernatural Indigenous African worldviews may serve as a coping mechanism in an apocalyptic world, as well as act as a transitionary medium in recreating Black futures.
