But what do visions of an alternative future look like?\nThis episode explores how historically, inequalities in the present have been projected into the future, both in terms of how the future has been portrayed, and how it comes to be realised.\nWe look at the impacts of colonialism in the past, present and future, meeting the people changing this on the ground - from activists, to artists, to sci-fi fans. \nWhatever the future holds, it is in our hands. Paying attention to the patterns of our time reveals the importance of embracing and cultivating diversity now, and for the long time.\nSpecial thanks to the contributors to this episode, Alisha B Wormsley, adrienne maree brown, Safiya Noble, Jay Griffiths, Joshua Virasami, Annauk Olin, Lonny Avi Brooks & Ahmed Best \nFind out more about Alisha B Wormsley’s work here\nFind adrienne maree brown’s most recent book, Grievers here, and listen to her Octavia’s Parables podcast here\nGet Joshua Virasami’s book, How to Change it: Make a Difference, here and in all good local bookshops.\nFind Safiya Noble’s book Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism here and in all good local bookshops\nJay Griffiths’s latest book How To Rebel, her book Pip Pip: A Sideways Look At Time and all her other brilliant works are available HERE and in all good local bookshops\nHere more about Annauk Olin’s work here\nListen to Lonny Brooks’ & Ahmed Best’s The Afrofuturist Podcast here and find out more about the Afro-rithms from the Future game here\nCREDITS\nThe Long Time Academy comes to you from Headspace Studios and The Long Time Project, and is produced by Scenery Studios.\nThe series was created and produced by Lina Prestwood and Ella Saltmarshe\nProduced by Ivor Manley and Madeleine Finlay \nExecutive producers at Headspace Studios are Ash Jones, Leah Sutherland & Morgan Selzer\nOriginal artwork by Mavi Morais\nDesign by Loz Ives & Lewis Kay-Thatcher\nOriginal music, sound design and mixing by Tristan Cassel-Delavois, Scott Sorenson & Chris Murguia\nEast Liberty news report clip courtesy of KDKA-TV CBS Pittsburgh\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
