Many works of African speculative fiction draw inspiration from the storytelling that has been passed down through generations orally. This gives the stories a rhythmic and engaging quality. Moreover, it often challenges Western norms and perspectives. Instead of following the typical Western science - fiction or fantasy tropes, it presents its own view of the future, the supernatural, and the possible. It can also be a means of reclaiming African identities. By creating unique and imaginative worlds based on African cultures, it helps to assert the importance and value of African heritage in the global literary and cultural landscape.
