Season of the Sower

Season of The Sower is an anthology and workbook in dialogue with Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower. The anthology features visual artists, writers and cultural practitioners – like American Artist, Abolish Time, Black Quantum Futurism, and Nykelle DeVivo – who are interested in returning to the earth and creating pathways forward in our ever changing world. 

It also includes a reading guide and workbook co-written by Butler scholar and researcher, Dr. Tamisha A. Tyler. There are plenty of pages to write, journal, and explore in this 100+ page publication.
