Do you think that there should be more Blackness added to the Cyberpunk genre? And why?

The reason why I ask this, is because in Cyberpunk stories or stories that have Cyberpunk elements to them, they mainly follow the formula of futuristic societies that include the unprivileged people and their fight against totalitarian governments and corporations. I think it would be more suitable for these stories to feature us and to give more insight into the Dominant Society, but in a mainstream fashion, perhaps for younger audiences, especially since our struggle is not a work of fiction, at all.

    We have to make them it's simple and plain. If we see ourselves in Cyberpunk we need to manifest it. We need our artists in the community to show us a proof of concept and then we must support it to help it come to fruition. White people have essentially made it clear in a lot of Cyberpunk that they don't see us in their future.

    The only thing I hope is that in Cyberpunk we've already progressed past the fight the power shit. We been doing that for 400 years we need a new reality. We need to be the power.
