Bayo Akomolafe’s Long Now Talk took us on a journey through Yoruba cosmology, slave ship histories, and decolonization strategies. He invited us to look at the space between the tick and the tock, to sit in the uncomfortable and incomplete. Only here, in what he called “parapolitics of the untimely,” can we ask, “What does untimeliness make possible?”
