I joined Marion Atieno Osieyo on Black Earth Podcast for a conversation that went deep. We covered why futures thinking matters for Black-led climate organizing, what I learned working with survivors of the 1921 Tulsa massacre, how care functions as a technology in climate movements, and why Octavia Butler remains essential for anyone trying to sense what’s emerging.
Marion created space to move slowly enough to go somewhere real. We talked about grief and speculation, about what it means to inherit violence, about how to build futures that don’t require anyone’s erasure.
We followed up with a LinkedIn Live conversation where we pushed further — into how Octavia Butler practiced foresight through fiction, and how a futures card game might guide you into strange, tender, post-capitalist timelines. We each pulled cards from A Thing from a Radical Future and crafted our own artifacts from the future, complete with visuals and stories.
