The term AFRIKIN® (pronounced ah • free • kin) is the fusion of two words “Africa (the continent) and Kinship (a sharing of characteristics or origins)”. AFRIKIN® is a new and cohesive identity by which we can move forward in love and through the connection of our global commonalities -- without the limitations of bias. This movement is fueled through programming -- art, conversation, exhibition, fashion, food, and performance. AFRIKIN® folk are global people who are intergenerational and multicultural. And whose innovation comes through the provision of safe spaces to connect and through the delivery of cultural programming serving as a catalyst for socio-economic transformation for the development of assets in all sectors related to creative culture and its associated industries. As the community advance in their ingenuity while journeying toward the promise of a good future - AFRIKIN® assists in crafting and documenting this historic narrative. Fundamental values are renewed as we share different perspectives on our future as a global society. Discussion on the necessity of love as a unifying force in our communities and in our world is the central theme of AFRIKIN®. This kinship fuels the central theme in removing barriers that divide us and in fostering respect for our differences. We decided to focus on ways that speaks to the solidarity of mankind and how the process of unification must be based on the principle of Universal Love.
