BLK BRIT Magazine

This is for all of our reference. The print issue holds a special place in our hearts as it stands to debunk misconceptions within the ongoing narrative of what it means to be Black and British; an island nation that simultaneously holds beautiful yet troubling contributions to our experience and identities. The ongoing battle and need to constantly educate the masses about our beautiful coils and curls while still needing to move our heads away when unwanted hands reach to touch our strands. Having to carefully read product labels ensuring it contains ingredients that nourish and not damage our crowns, explaining the beauty of our style or clothing textures which hail from our parents and grandparents, to fighting against systems that contribute towards the harm of a population that significantly aided in the building of a nation we call home - all factors that often become tiring. That is where For Our Reference comes in.
