UHURU Magazine

UHURU is an award-winning magazine that aims to promote innovation, creativity, and culture through the voice of marginalized students on the Kent State University campus. Having a history of pan-African teachings and values, UHURU Magazine focuses on the plight of all students around the globe. 'Uhuru,' which is Kiswahili for ‘freedom,’ serves as a platform for student creation and expression in art, writing, photography and graphic design, while discussing racial, social and/or political ignorance. As a derivative of Black Unites Students, this publication is dedicated to disseminating knowledge of the African-American experience in the past, present and future. Although we focus on the unification of the African-American population, we also serve as a safe haven for other people of color, as we reflect all people of color at Kent State University.
