Afrofuturism done right
Kizazi Moto is afrofuturism done right . It has a lot of heart, loving local nuances, black writers who bring in those textures that hollywood would not know and every short has its own distinct look that celebrates the continent. The revolution is being televised and I am all for it.
The respect the anathalogy series shows to African Spirituality whilst also showcasing alternative futures with different animation styles is impressive. Theres different tonality to the animation, voice acting and stories, reflects the diversity of our continent and is captured beautifully.
Well done to the team, I'm hoping this is a start of seeing more black penned animation projects out of the continent.2023 is the year that animation is making a major comeback on all fronts, whether it be Super Mario, Across the Spider-verse now we can enter Kizazi Moto to that list.
