Ubuntu Magazine: supporting The Black Academy Foundation

/ Shakestycoon

On Wednesday 26 August at the Black Archives in Amsterdam, we launched the Ubuntu Magazine. This is a continuation of the mission work of the Black Scholar and Expert Conference series.

Yours truly was at hand to MC the well attended launch event. Proceeds from the sale of this Ubuntu Magazine will go toward the establishment and work of The Black Academy Foundation. The Black Academy Foundation will henceforth become the vehicle for organising and hosting the Black Scholar and Expert Conference. The next conference is slated for 2027 so look out for more information…

Please consider ordering your printed copies here https://athenaeumscheltema.nl/a/magazine/ubuntu-magazine/2001000075515 or walk to the building of Athenaeum Boekhandel & Nieuwscentrum in Amsterdam City Centre or the Athenaeum Boekhandel Zuidoost in Amsterdam Bijlmer for your copies.

In the meantime, you can browse through a pdf copy of the magazine – which is no way comparable to having the physical copy in hand.
