Using Octavia Butler's prophetic writing, specifically, passages from her Parable series, as a conceptual lens, this article will explore the ways one Black girl uses multimodal literacies to imagine new worlds that center and celebrate her Black girlhood. An exploration of her multimodal literacies shows how she simultaneously confronts reality, what exists under this earthly sun, and, in turn, also imagines and shares a new world, under a new sun, built for and by Black girls. This article builds on data collected from a practitioner research study of writing collaborative for girls of Color and applies feminist of Color analyses to create a narrative portrait that explores Black girl literacies as portals to new suns.
