Reimagines neurodiversity through intersections of race, disability, and social justiceNeurodiversity has progressed from niche activism to a household term; our culture is now saturated with social media ads promising to "train" ADHD brains and media tropes like the quirky savant. But amidst this barrage of content urging self-optimization against a neurotypical template, Neurofutures pauses to ask: what comes next? Editors Diana R. Paulin, M. Remi Yergeau, Ralph James Savarese, and Elizabeth J. Donaldson gather a diverse array of scholars and creatives to think through "crip time" – sideways, chronic, manic, and executive dysfunction time – to reimagine the future of cognitive difference.Moving beyond a simplistic celebration of diversity, the collection interrogates the intersections of race, disability, and social justice. Contributors offer "mad provocations" that span from Black neurodivergence and Afrofuturism to neuroqueer paradigms and animal liberation. Through analyses of cultural texts – ranging from the folklore of "Little Eight John" to the speculative worlds of Octavia Butler and Shirley Jackson – the essays deconstruct the violence of neurotypical norms while advocating for the rights of neurodivergent people to full lives and care.Neurofutures refuses the linear march of progress, instead delving into the complex, often hidden realities of lived experience to map a world that welcomes divergence, dissent, and deep compassion.

Essays on neurodiversity in life and literatureRooted in disability activism and social justice discourse, Neurofutures defines, contextualizes, and reframes neurodiversity in its broadest sense—as the infinite variation of human minds. The essays highlight the voices of individuals with experiences of autism, anxiety, bipolar disorder, sleep-wake differences, obsessive-compulsive disorder, psychosis, and other forms of neurodivergence—experiences that may exist alongside other contexts like race, class, gender, and sexuality. Drawing on insights from literary texts and lived experiences, contributors acknowledge the pains and complexities of cognitive difference while evincing creative, defiant resilience and envisioning futures in which neurodivergence is valued, ableism is opposed, and intersectional justice is possible.This volume contains discussion of the following authors and works: Hamja Ahsan, Shy Radicals: The Antisystemic Politics of the Militant Introvert Jesse Ball, Census Octavia E.
