the Africa they Never show You

Afroklectic

Being black and creative is a new concept in the small black community in Australia, but things are changing. 

Gillean Opoku, who was born and raised in Australia, made a video of young African-Australians about their views of an African creative culture emerging in Australia. 

Opoku is also the founder of Afroklectic. Which is a platform to promote creativity within the African-Australia community. Share ideas, communicate to a wider audience that Africa is more than what they see in the media. And to communicate to an audience outside Australia that there are Africans living in Australia.

Listen to Gellian Opuku’s story about her experience as black person in Australia here. To keep informed of what is going in the African-Austrialian community tune into web radio SBS African.
