Singer. Dancer. Movie star. Activist. Queer icon. Afrofuturist. Working class heroine. Time traveler. Prophet. Feminist. Android. Dirty Computer. Janelle Mon�e is all these things and more, making her one of the most fascinating artists to emerge in the twenty-first century. This provocative new study explores how Mon�e's work has connected different media platforms to strengthen and enhance new movements in art, theory, and politics. It considers not only Mon�e's groundbreaking albums The ArchAndroid, The Electric Lady, and Dirty Computer, but also Mon�e's work as an actress in such films as Hidden Figures and Antebellum, as well as her soundtrack appearances in socially-engaged projects ranging from I May Destroy You to Us. Examining Mon�e as a cultural icon whose work is profoundly intersectional, this book maps how she is actively reshaping discourses around race, gender, sexuality, and capitalism. Tracing Mon�e's performances of joy, desire, pain, and hope across a wide range of media forms, it shows how she imagines Afrofuturist, posthumanist, and postcapitalist utopias, while remaining grounded in the realities of being a Black woman in a white-dominated industry. This is an exciting introduction to an audacious innovator whose work offers us fresh ways to talk about identity, desire, and power.
