AfroPunk is considered a life style. The people who choose to physically identify with movement also live it in their everyday lives; they attend the events and concerts, spreading their message and experiences everywhere that they go. They are not “fashion-punks.”

ISSUE#2
Our second issue looks at the materiality of Identity and how it takes shape in Art, Fashion, Style, and even gender. We can hide behind it and create a shield; decorate it, glitter and sparkle it in order to reveal its translucency and invite the world inside; or materialize it, in order to transform the world around us.
ISSUE#1
Dekit’s Winter and Debut issue was designed to open up the question, “What does it mean to be human?” as an experiential conversation between us, our contributing artist and our readers. The different sections created segments or fragments that can be nuanced together to create a larger picture and larger dialogue of understanding what the core ideals of being human is about.
