Resumo: Speculative literature is a genre that grows rapidly in contemporary times. Its popularity is due to the incorporation of new and diverse perspectives, as well as its promotion of the rise of voices never considered before in the literary tradition. This phenomenon generated a series of intricate manifestations of the literary art, such as the black utopia and the narratives of black futures featured by the Afrofuturist movement. This article aims to analyze the ideal speculative literary perspectives produced and/or created by and for black people. For this, we propose an analytical study of the configurations of the Afrofuturistic utopia in the film Black Panther (2018) by Ryan Coogler and the short story “Emergency Skin” (2021) by N. K Jemisin. To reach this goal, we used the theoretical contributions of Zygmunt Bauman (2000), Marilena Chauí (2008), Gregory Claeys (2013), David Harvey (2008), Renato Noguera (2012), André Prévost (2015), Raymond Williams (1978), Ytasha L. Womack (2013) and Alex Zamalin (2019).

Sua popularidade se deve à inserção de novas perspectivas e à promoção da ascensão de vozes nunca antes consideradas na tradição literária. Esse fenômeno gerou uma série de intricadas manifestações da arte literária, como é o caso da utopia preta e das narrativas de futuros pretos do movimento afrofuturista. O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar as perspectivas literárias especulativas ideais produzidas e/ou protagonizadas pelo povo preto. Desse modo, propomos um estudo analítico das configurações da utopia afrofuturista no filme Pantera Negra (2018), de Ryan Coogler, e do conto “Pele de Emergência” (2021), de N. K Jemisin. Para tal, buscamos aporte nas obras e contribuições teóricas de Zygmunt Bauman (2000), Marilena Chauí (2008), Gregory Claeys (2013), David Harvey (2008), Renato Noguera (2012), André Prévost (2015), Raymond Williams (1978), Ytasha L.
