A Cultural Movement for Environmental Liberation
From Seeds to the Stars
Using the radical imagination of Afrofuturism to envision—and build—environmental futures where Black communities and all marginalized peoples thrive.
Eco-Afro Futures brings together scientists, artists, activists, and community members to imagine environmental alternatives rooted in Black diasporic wisdom and Afrofuturist vision.
We believe that those most impacted by environmental injustice hold the knowledge we need to transform our relationship with the Earth—and each other.
From intimate conversations to flagship summits, we create spaces where Black communities lead the conversation on climate futures.
Our annual Oakland gathering brings hundreds together for talks, art, workshops, and collective visioning. A full day anchoring a growing national movement.
Intimate networking events bringing BIPOC environmental leaders together in curated spaces for connection, strategy, and joy—like our SF Climate Week gathering.
Mid-size events for communities to host their own conversations. Discussion guides, facilitation frameworks, and partnership templates included.
