Description
High Jack de Conqueror traverses the political development of the United States and the world in the years following the volatile cultural and political skirmishes of the 2020s and 2030s. Beginning with the murder of Lena Powers, America's transformative Black female president, events unfold that reveal deep blemishes on the soul of the country as well as revealing cultural aspects of the people that could possibly work towards repairing and healing the nation amidst environmental, political and moral collapse.
Part political thriller, part historical novel from the future and part work of visionary Afrofuturism, High Jack de Conqueror explores questions that confront us as perennially contemporary people in a globalized and digitized world.
Advance Praise
"If there has to be an Afrofuturism, at least in High Jack de Conqueror we have an Afrofuturism that is of use, something beyond popular cultural robotic moneygrubbing. This is an easy read. You just have to read it. Along the way you will find that it is what you want to be reading, though you did not know that when you started, because you are facing up to yourself as you interrogate this kaleidoscope of voices [...] High Jack de Conqueror is as funny as it is serious. Art can do that."
