Represent Represent: African American College Alliance Clothing Is Making A Kickstarter Comeback

We know y’all remember these sweats right? African American College Alliance (AACA Clothing) is a brand hailed for its self-starting youth movement stemming from 1991. Birthed in a period of time where hip-hop was defined by it’s cultural impact and Historical Black Colleges and Universities, AACA rose to the top, quickly garnering attention and support from the most influential artists of all time, including Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G., N.W.A., Snoop Dogg, LL Cool J and more. Their famous hoodies branded with the logo’s of Historically Black Colleges and Universities, including Howard University, North Carolina A&T, Grambling State and Malcolm X College, was a true proponent of the positive youth movement of the 90’s. This brand led to an enrollment explosion in HBCUs from ’91 – ’94. In celebration of their 25th anniversary, AACA Clothing is re-launching the brand via a Kickstarter campaign, giving room for supporters and backers to reignite the youth and take ownership in the start-up of the African-American owned clothing brand. This Kickstarter campaign will offer ultra-contemporary gear including the classic AACA logo’d hoodies, hats and for the first time in 20 years, the AACA sweat suits.
