Time Is Now For Africans To Reclaim Our Digital Space: Connect, Celebrate, And Grow With The African Collective App
For too long, we, the vibrant and diverse community of African descendants, have navigated social media landscapes that often feel unwelcoming, if not outright discriminatory.
I mean the kind of outright discriminatory remarks, bans, and scrutinies from the so-called prominent social media spaces.
Our voices have been muted, our narratives misconstrued, and our very existence sometimes feels like an afterthought on platforms not built with us in mind.
The subtle biases in algorithms, the lack of culturally relevant content moderation, and the outright erasure of our history and experiences have left many of us feeling marginalised and unseen.
We’ve witnessed firsthand the frustration of having our posts flagged or removed for reasons that often feel arbitrary and steeped in a lack of understanding of our cultural nuances.
We’ve seen our historical figures and movements censored while harmful stereotypes persist. We’ve yearned for a space where our conversations, celebrations, and struggles are tolerated, understood, and valued.
Today, that yearning takes a decisive step towards becoming a reality. We are thrilled to share the exciting news of the new launch of African Collective, a social media app designed by and for people of African descent.
The African Collective App is a new social media platform for people of African descent. It’s a space to unite, share our stories, support each other’s businesses, and celebrate our rich cultures.
Many of us feel left out or ignored on big social media platforms. The African Collective App was created to give us a place where our voices matter and our culture shines.
