afropunk bk: battle for the streets

The origins of AFROPUNK are in Black counterculture. Skateboarding, punk rock, mosh pits, people of color who didn’t live by the status quo. There’s beauty in that freedom— liberation. The Battle for the Streets Competition in the AFROPUNK skate park is proof. This is how we fly.
