Was ist Black Media Kongress? Black Media Kongress ist ein jährlich stattfindendes Event für Professionals, Studenten/innen und Aktivisten/innen afrikanischer Herkunft, um Kontakte und Informationen innerhalb Deutschlands sowie der europäischen Gemeinschaft auszutauschen. Die TeilnehmerInnen bilden das Black Media Network in Anbindung an die Datenbank www.cyberNomads.de .
What is Black Media Congress ? The image of Germany is often portrayed as a homogeneous structure that denies the existence of people of African descent – a minority community that has been long underrepresented historically as well politically.
Following the portrayal within the German educational establishment this community is a relatively new phenomenon unlike in countries like England, France and the USA, where it makes a visible impact in the cultural industry.
The federal department for political education has finally recognized the absence of representation of people of African descent. Since 2002 it has sponsored three ISD Projects conceptualized & realized by (AFROTAK TV) cyberNomads to help promote and establish documentation and exchange of infotainment within new media structures to self-empower and educate a target group of educators, activists and artists around Germany and the global African Diaspora.
