Who We Are

Detester Magazine, founded in 2019, is a youth-led nonprofit platform dedicated to amplifying people of color youth activism and socio-political issues.

We want to advocate issues that affect people of color communities around the globe, whether it concerns politics, society, culture, mental health, environment, and etc. We aim to push past the endless single stories to deliver a picture that expresses distilled human emotions and diverse perspectives. *The name Detester Magazine reflects our goal to combat the hate and bigotry that stem from ignorance.
