Home Rule Mag.Zine is a digital and print publication dedicated to preserving and celebrating Washington, DC's rich music, film, and cultural heritage. Drawing inspiration from Jimmy Gray’s Black Fire Magazine of the 1970s, our mission is to uplift historically marginalized artistic voices and connect communities through storytelling.

Home Rule Mag.Zine Issue 004, “Rooted in Rhythm,” is a tribute to the to jazz and go-go movements that have shaped D.C.’s music culture. In this issue, jazz legend and festival performing artist, James “Plunky” Branch, gave us a look into the creative process behind “Made Through Ritual,” Plunky & Oneness of Juju’s new album. Go-go artist and radio personality, Shorty Corleone, talked about the road to getting Crank Radio on the airwaves. We learned about the new Go-Go Museum & Café’s crankin collection of artifacts and its #DontMuteDC roots.

We are proud to once again highlight the creatives who have contributed to the festival and the culture.​​
