In Professor Jameel Paulin's 2020 MFA project "Congo Square", an audio-visual album produced and developed for virtual reality, Paulin situates Afrofuturism and hip-hop within the long history of Afrocentric aesthetic and spiritual practices; examining vodun and Congo Square as moments where African ancestors transformed the way that their descendants could exist in and re-shape the modern world by maintaining African centered worldviews.   Jameel Paulin is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor of Art at Colorado College.
