Welcome to this special edition of DIVA magazine. Guest-edited by Lady Phyll, the Black Queer Futures issue invites its contributors and readers to imagine a better tomorrow.
We could think of no better cover star than the award-winning actor T'Nia Miller. It's been a big year for The Haunting Of Bly Manor icon. She's joined Marvel as VisionQuest's Jocasta and has co-founded a new creative venture, GAFF. Within these pages, the trailblazer talks to deputy editor Nic Crosara about the state of the world and the power of storytelling.
