G’Ra Asim is the author of Boyz in the Void: A mixtape to my brother (Beacon Press). He’s @notjadedpunk on Instagram.
He’s a punk rocker and a killer spinner of yarns. It’s a fantastic book on “navigating Blackness, masculinity, and young adulthood: all through wry social commentary and a music/pop culture critique.
We talk a lot about the DIY nature of art, punk rock, straight-edge culture and why he chose to write this book to his younger brother.
Strap in for a fun one, CNFers.
