With its speculative plot including an expedition through the desert, a cryptic treasure map, secret chambers, and a run-in with an ancient sacred crocodile, Pauline E. Hopkins’ thrilling afrofuturist 1902 novel Of One Blood; or The Hidden Self calls to mind Black Panther’s Wakanda and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Hopkins brings up a lot of questions about race and power in the midst of all this thrilling storytelling, reclaiming Black history in her appeal for racial justice. Guests, Eurie Dahn and Brian Sweeney, colleagues in the English department at the College of Saint Rose in Albany, New York, edited a brand new edition of Of One Blood for Broadview Press.
