Africa : The Founders of Afripedia Are Changing the One-Sided Story About Africa

The Internet Needs More Afripedia – An Interview with Teddy Goitom, the Ethiopian/Eritrean Film Producer Behind It

Afripedia is a digital series that profiles young African creatives from
Senegal, South Africa, Kenya, Angola and Ghana. There’s a Senegalese photographer takes photos of his countrymen in elegant poses against the intricate designs of African fabric. There’s an androgynous musician in Ghana who moved to Accra away from her conservative hometown so she could make it. There’s a Kenyan digital artist, Andrew Kaggia, who is one of the leading 3-D artists in the world.

I saw four complete episodes of this series last year at Rio’s Black Film festival–
Encontro de Cinema Negro, Brasil, África e Caribe.
