OUR STORY
The art pictured here is that of Serge Attukwei Clottey, a Ghanaian artist. It's from his art concept 'Afrogallonism' - which is a celebration of the yellow gallons initially used to carry cooking oil and then reused to carry water or sometimes fuel. As you look around the website, you will see many images from the Afrogallonism concept, as well as other African art.
True African pride; comes from anything. That's what the art tells us and that's what Uncover is built on. Uncover prides itself on being a Pan-African, cultural hub. A space for people to "tap-in" to their roots, or "discover themselves" if you like, all with the intention of embracing our many differences as African people. The platform is intended to connect Africans from the diaspora to Africans all over the world, especially back in the motherland. Through knowledge, perspective, discourse and of course, enjoyment - we hope to empower, engage and educate our own people.
We strongly believe in the power of collaboration in our community, which is why Uncover hosts likeminded professionals from across the diaspora who offer a range of professional services - a great way to strengthen our network.
You can explore a range of content, including news and updates, archives of articles and blogs on topics across African history and digital content from our in-house channel.
