Academic Fellows Report November 2022
This report examines the role of young African influencers and viral hashtags on TikTok and Instagram in challenging Afropessimism and nurturing an African digital cosmopolitan practice.
africanofilter.orgThe Academic Fellows program has brought together 11 African academics based around the continent
and the diaspora to investigate Africa's narrative across a range of mediums and topics that include
social media, arts reinstitution, the impact of Covid-19, and spoken word poetry. The program brings
academic rigour and an evidence-based approach to African No Filter's work to understand and shift
harmful and stereotypical narratives about Africa. It forms part of a larger research agenda to
understand narrative and its impact. It is co-funded by Facebook and supported by The African Union,
AUDA-NEPAD and the New York-based Africa Centre.
