Super excited to get my hands on this!!! My chapter, "Black/African science fiction and imaginative resistance," argues that B/A Sci Fi can be used in conjunction with legal history to reveal how the law facilitates disparate allocations of time with material consequences.
Great to get my editorial copies of our @RoutledgeLaw collection 'Cultural Legal Studies of Science Fiction'. As per my usual practice, I will be doing a 🚨GIVEAWAY🚨 of just one copy! Details on how to enter below. 🧵
