Afroalgorhythms (PB) (2026)

In Afroalgorhythms, Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro blends ancestral memory with Afrodiasporic science fiction. Arroyo Pizarro challenges the narratives we inherit and the systems, colonial and heteronormative, that govern our lives. Throughout the work, her characters confront new kinds of systemic violence which have been reorganized to fit new technological and ecological conditions. Iyalawo guides us through erased histories, Fanon through Afroreparation, and characters like Helena through gendered violence and biopolitics. Arroyo Pizarro crafts a liminal space that sits between myth, memory, and data. Afroalgorhythms maps an Afrofeminist struggle shaped by artificial intelligence, data control, and reconfigured colonial surveillance.
