Imagining Futures in the Age of Twilight

In ‘Imagining Futures in the Age of Twilight’, Salt traverses a number of geographies of blackness in order to tease out the ways that twilight draws upon historical, cultural and political apparatuses as needed – along with issues of race, difference, indigeneity and capitalism. In walking with a range of thinkers – including Tina Campt and Keguro Macharia – Salt considers how practicing refusal can enable one to live in – and reimagine a future outside of – toxic soils. This is not an essay of solutions, but more one of determination to theorise futures within occlusion and to reanimate equitable world(s) even as ours are bathed in twilight.
