Ten years ago, music industry vet Matthew Morgan and filmmaker James Spooner released the documentary “Afro-punk,” which highlighted African-American kids in the indie rock and punk scene.
Since then, they’ve built a community around Afropunk culture through the website afro punk.com and an annual Afropunk festival in Brooklyn that features music, films and food.
This year, the free festival will be headlined by hip-hop legends Chuck D and ?uestlove.
Here are other bands to watch for at the fest.
