The latest version of NappyGram, featuring its signature Black drummer logo, primarily focuses on civil and political rights. 

The term "NappyGram" was coined from Amos Kennedy's personal experience at Indiana University, where a report referred to the hiring of “non-white” members instead of “colored” members.

The origin of NAPPY was both a critique and a humorous take on the issue of racial disparity within academic art departments.
