dynamicafrica:Illustrations & Digital Artwork by South African Artist “Negritude Republic”. About Negritude“Negritude is a literary and ideological movement, developed by black intellectuals. It is a cultural movement and awakening of race consciousness, rooted in a (re)discovery of the authentic self. It is a way of living history within history: the history of a community whose experience appears to be… unique, with its deportation of populations, its transfer of people from one continent to another, its distant memories of old beliefs, its fragments of murdered cultures. How can we not believe that all this, which has its own coherence, constitutes a heritage?Negritude Republic is an idea that developed in distinct ways in different countries due, in part, to language, culture, and the political climate.I wanted to create a brand that in some way would kind of embrace those diversity and celebration of shared black heritage and then work them into apparel for everyone to wear, in a similar way that brands I look up to have done.“Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | Soundcloud | Mixcloud -- source link
