0G142: Facts Concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn and Afropessimism vs. Afrofuturism

CONTENT WARNING: We're getting into some proper colonial racism this week. I picked a story that, to me, exemplifies Lovecraft in his racist glory. We use this to apply the post-colonial discussions from last week and then bring it all together to discuss afropessimism and afrofuturism.   Content: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facts_Concerning_the_Late_Arthur_Jermyn_and_His_Family   Editing by Luisa Lyons, check out her amazing podcast Filmed Live Musicals: http://www.filmedlivemusicals.com/   Support us at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/0G   Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/0gPhilosophy   Join our Facebook discussion group (make sure to answer the questions to join): https://www.facebook.com/groups/985828008244018/   Email us at: philosophersinspace@gmail.com   If you have time, please write us a review on iTunes.
