0G141: HBO's Lovecraft Country and Colonial Knowledge Production

Ishtash fishtash ftaginash! With these names I bind you to the pod forever. Any time you're traveling you'll be drawn to listen to the podcast. Such is the power of my knowledge of naming and geography and stolen magic and whatnot. I got it from rewatching HBO's Lovecraft Country and you should too. We're talking Post-Colonialism and colonial knowledge production as a precursor to analyzing the dialogue between afropessimism and afrofuturism.   Content: HBO's Lovecraft Country ep 8-10   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: [email protected]   If you have time, please write us a review on iTunes.
