Huck #79 is all about people taking control of their own narrative. Cover star Mia Khalifa discusses how humour, therapy and community have helped her redefine herself in the public eye. She also chats about trolling dictators, grilled cheese sandwiches at school and appearing in the Emmy award-winning series Ramy. Meanwhile, Chuck Treece talks about applying a punk mentality to everything from skating to playing bass and drums, and Iranian motorbike champion Behnaz Shafiei races to overturn gender discrimination worldwide.

The Results

Elsewhere in the magazine, British/Pakistani producer Ahadadream is fresh back from touring with Skrillex, and we visit the island of Lamu in the Indian Ocean to investigate how one man’s donkey beauty contest is promoting community and animal welfare. We chat to South African singer Bongeziwe Mabandla about his new album, and finding his voice after the pandemic - plus he poses for some sick pictures by photographer Travys Owen.

Huck continues to evolve and this issue takes us in exciting new directions. We have a fresh perspective on one of the most recognised names in pop culture, Mia Khalifa, and a look back over the illustrious career of Chuck Treece, the pioneering African American skater and musician. This issue is packed with unexpected and inspiring stories from around the globe: queer fighters in Ukraine, one of my favourites, a donkey beauty pageant on Lamu and burying a Brit award underneath.

We also hear from Queer resistance fighters in Ukraine, talk to Cat Vinton, a photographer documenting nomads around the world, and check out a drag night making waves in Namibia. And that’s just the beginning - there’s much, much more.
