American Artist reimagines the history of rocket science through the lens of Octavia Butler, blending speculative fiction, Black futurism, and critique of space colonization. The Monophobic Response connects Butler’s Earthseed vision with real rocket tests, centering Black and brown communities in a new narrative of survival, technology, and imagined futures.
