When Tech & Ancestral Power Collide: A Night with Kelechi Okafor


When Tech & Ancestral Power Collide: A Night with Kelechi Okafor
7:00pm, Friday 4th of July, Century Club Soho
What happens when AI meets ancestral wisdom?
“Set in a near-future where technology is fully integrated in our homes, and a humanoid AI is running for London Mayor, Pels is a journalist desperate to get to the bottom of a spate of disappearances of young Black British people who are then found dead by bodies of water.”
In this provocative live event, author, actor, and cultural disruptor Kelechi Okafor dives into the explosive themes behind her debut novel Awakened - power, technology, identity, and the spirit world - and how they collide in the lives of Black women navigating a future that’s already here.
From Spirit Vine ceremonies to surveillance culture, from data to divination. Expect bold ideas, sharp insight, and no-filter conversation on reclaiming narrative power in a world designed to erase it.
Come curious.
