Black Rock CityBy Hiya SwanhuyserPublished on November 03, 2009 at 4:20amAfro-Punk is on. It's an explosion of young, talented, alternative African-Americans. "[People have] gathered around this idea that you can be Black and different," says Trace magazine's Claude Grunitzky in an MTV video clip about the organization, named after James Spooner's independent documentary of the same name.

Tonight, Afro-Punk presents Saul Williams and American Fangs.
