The Renegade Magazine will have stories affecting SU's African American community, including objectification of women, fashion and lifestyle trends.
With a story in mind, Ibet Inyang approached the editor-in-chief of a Syracuse University magazine who turned her away, saying the topic was too controversial.
Inyang wanted to write about natural hair, a growing trend in the African American community.
“I still don’t really get what she meant by ‘controversial,’ but at that moment I thought that there should be a campus magazine where a story like that can be published,” Inyang said.
