Logo da iniciativa

AfroCrowd (estilizado como AfroCROWD) é uma iniciativa para criar e melhorar informações sobre cultura e história negra na Wikipédia. O projeto está sediado em Nova York e foi fundado por Alice Backer em 2015.[1] [2]

Fundação

Alice Backer em 2015

Alguns observadores notaram uma escassez de conteúdo referente à história da África subsaariana na Wikipedia.[3] Em 2015, a advogada Alice Backer fundou a AfroCROWD[2] para "retificar a falta de artigos da Wikipedia sobre história negra e cultura negra".[1] De acordo com Backer, o objetivo do projeto é “dar às pessoas de cor oportunidades de fazer mais do que participar e consumir mídias sociais”.[4]

Estratégias e táticas

AfroCROWD hospeda milhares de edições e palestras em toda a área metropolitana de Nova York.[1] Eles fizeram parceria com outras organizações, como o Haiti Cultural Exchange e o Haitian Creole Language Institute para sediar esses eventos.[5]

O AfroCROWD busca aumentar o número de afrodescendentes que participam ativamente da Wikimedia e dos movimentos de conhecimento livre.[6]
