ABOUT ME

My name is Kandice Thompson. I am a Literatures in English major, Film Studies minor at the University of the West Indies. In the year 2022, Creative Non-Fiction and Digital Media, felt like a necessary course for a Humanities student to undertake. Afrofuturism in the Jamaican context will be my area of exploration for this course.

In this techno-social era, navigating cyberspace and digital media, branding yourself and digitizing your work seems vital to success as the world of traditional print media dwindles. I am heavily invested in West Indian literature due to this ever-growing awareness of how distinctly my Jamaican upbringing has shaped me and informs my perspective on creative and academic pursuits.
