"This book is Black world building at its finest, beyond rhetorical gestures or fictional “what ifs.” Philip Butler raises the stakes of who we can become by offering an architecture of who we’ve always been – brilliance embodied!" — Dr. Gary F. Green II, Associate Professor of Pastoral Theology and Social Transformation at United Theological Seminary and Founder of Racial Intelligence Systems

"What looks at first like a book of wild range: Five Percenter ontology, parts work, cosmology, Kali, turns out to be a single claim rehearsed at ascending scale, from the soul-self to the nation. Butler has built something fractal and strange and coherent. Still Black, Posthuman refuses to ask permission, which is precisely its argument." —  Michael E. Sawyer, Professor of African-American Literature & Culture, University of Pittsburgh

Series: Ethics and Intersectionality

Still Black, Posthuman unravels the relationship that Black people have with humanity and Blackness by exploring Blackness at the intersection of Black theological thought, posthumanism, Black literature, and physics. Butler focuses on the significance of recognizing the dynamic and unpredictable nature of Black subjectivity that exists outside the realm/limitations of humanity. Still Black, Posthuman engages to what extent Black imaginings concerning the liberative realm have been shackled by placating to and living within the bounds of westernized notions of humanity.

Philip Butler is associate professor of theology and Black post-human artificial intelligence systems at Iliff School of Theology. He is an international scholar whose work primarily focuses on the intersections of neuroscience, technology, spirituality, and Blackness, using the wisdom of these spaces to engage in critical and constructive analysis on Black posthumanism, artificial intelligence, and pluriversal future realities.
