Synopsis

(H)afrocentric tackles racism, the patriarchy, and popular culture head-on. Unapologetic and unabashed, (H)afrocentric introduces us to strong yet vulnerable students of colour, as well as an aesthetic that connects current Black pop culture to an organic re-appropriation of hip hop fashion circa the early 90s. We start the journey when gentrification strikes the neighbourhood surrounding Ronald Reagan University.
