Brut's mission statement is to advance inclusivity in all creative fields by providing an interdisciplinary safe space for marginalized artists.

Each issue contains a folio that highlights writers and artists at a specific intersection of identities, as well as fiction, poetry, nonfiction, interviews, and art.

[10] The magazine aims to welcome a broad range of writers from all walks of life, specifically those underrepresented in the existing literary milieu.

Focusing on voices and stories that are traditionally pushed to the margins or completely left out of mainstream art and literary culture allows us to address this empathic disparity.”[12] Its Fall 2015 issue included an interview with artist Jayson Musson.
