Afropunk has morphed from an indie film into a staple festival, affirming that Black culture is extremely diverse, complex, and beautiful with its rebel ethos.
The move to Prospect Park was part of a new partnership with BRIC’s 'Celebrate Brooklyn,' aiming to rejuvenate the festival experience and program heavily around alternative experiences.
Allen T. Lamb emphasized that the updated Afropunk BLKTopia experience is about reimagining self-perception and dignity through a future-focused lens celebrating what 'Black People Do'.
Despite a history of star-studded lineups, the current Afropunk saw mixed reviews, leaving attendees questioning if the $140 ticket was justified in light of the changes.
