Are You Borg Now?

2nd Edition

Beschreibung

Are You Borg Now? cyphers with trauma through a poetics of refusal via hard and beautiful language. Finding vigor in Islam and mirrors in Star Trek: Voyager, Shaiye shifts achingly between memory and improvisation. This innovative Afrofuturist memoir returns in a second edition with a new introduction by Douglas Kearney.
