Hmm... the essay in question was attached to a previous post... I'll 
attach it to this one too, in case you can't find it. It's actually not 
by DJ Spooky; he just posted it to the AfroFuturism list... and it has 
nothing to do with AfroFuturism either. It's the text of a presentation 
given by a man name Arundhati Roy at the World Social Forum in Porto 
Allegre.
