“If we are to define Black Gothicity as something other than simply a Black person who is goth, what accoutrement defines the AfroGoth? Or does it need accessories at all, is Blackness itself is the signifier? I think this is why I love Fred Berger’s photo so much. The photo was taken in 1984, when goth was still post-punk. She’s not wearing any makeup, her mohawk spiked just enough, there’s no lace or fishnets or extravagant eyeliner. It’s just a black girl in a Bauhaus t-shirt and that’s goth enough." 🖤 Leila Taylor's DARKLY: BLACK HISTORY AND AMERICA'S GOTHIC SOUL is in stock now 🖤 "Bauhaus T-shirt Girl" photo by Fred Berger for Propaganda Magazine https://www.facebook.com/propaganda.gothic/?ref=bookmarks #afrogoth #afrogothic #afrogothgirl #afrogoths #bauhaus #joydivision #jordanpeele #postpunk 🌔This a a repost from @repeaterbooks 🌖 (at Housmans Radical Booksellers) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7q6QiGgOVd/?igshid=1ffopwd3rh9sv
