Fashion designer Katende Godfrey (aka Blak) and his label, IGC, are redefining Ugandan fashion by reclaiming barkcloth—a fabric once stigmatised under colonial rule. Through authentic, Afro-futuristic designs, Blak revives cultural pride, empowers local artisans, and provides the frameworks for a sustainable fashion revolution.

This is a story of resilience, courage and creativity, showcasing how an up-and-coming fashion label challenges oppressive narratives and inspires hope for a brighter future. By integrating tradition with modernity, fashion with the blueprints of hip-hop and art with social impact, Blak proves that fashion can be both a vehicle for change and a force for healing.
