Amplifying black voices
We’re on a mission to make positive and authentic black stories more visible. We do that by equipping individuals and communities with media skills to tell and share their own stories. We’ve combined community activism and mobile journalism to create training programmes that empower. Our Mobile Storytelling workshops teach people the skills to create, film, edit and share impactful videos using a smartphone so they can shine a spotlight on their real lives, advocate for themselves and actively participate in the digital media space.
This is boosting self-esteem and confidence, upskilling people with modern skills for success and tackling the media’s demonisation of our communities. Read more…
Authentically showcasing diversity
We’re on a mission to make positive and authentic black stories more visible. We do that by equipping people with digital and social media skills to tell and share their own stories. We work directly within the diverse African, Caribbean and black British communities that we serve – with individuals, communities, grassroots community organisations and national black-led organisations.
To help us achieve our goal of amplifying black voices, we also work with community-focussed organisations like the NHS, social landlords, local authorities and arts venues. They buy our media training for their employees, service users and communities. We help organisations to authentically showcase diversity, connect with new audiences and communicate their social impact using digital media. Read more…
