We want to tell our own stories.

We refuse to accept the outdated "third world" labeling and are committed to reshaping and retelling this narrative through authentic stories. At the core, our commitment is to promote inclusivity, understanding, and acknowledgment of the multifaceted nature of Africans. We believe in the power of storytelling to challenge stereotypes and inspire a more accurate and positive representation of Africa.

It's our narrative. We are THRD Narrative.
