Abstract

This article outlines a framework for using multimodal media production (MMP) with urban youth to sketch critical future selves that are collaborative, self-confident, college going, and resilient.  Particularly today with the affordances of digital technologies, MMPs of alternative narratives by youth of color allow a particularly rich form of imagining and exploring different times and spaces, while also developing critical literacies, skills, and dispositions that allow them to actualize affirmative futures.
