The Faces of Afrounity

Afrounity is nothing without the people who show up for it: the storytellers, the culture bearers, the leaders, and the friends who make every room feel like home. This is where we introduce you to them.

Our People

Meet Our Community

Afrounity is made up of many different people, all bringing something different to the table. We are building out individual member profiles soon, but here is a bit about who you will find in this community today.

🖋️
The Storytellers
Sharing what it means to be African and queer in their own words, through essays, spoken word, and everyday conversation.
🎨
The Culture Bearers
Keeping our music, fashion, food, and traditions alive, while creating new ones that reflect who we are today.
🌱
The Newly Out & Newly Home
People finding their footing, whether that means coming out for the first time or reconnecting with the culture they grew up in.
🤝
The Allies & Chosen Family
Friends, partners, and family who show up, celebrate loudly, and always make room at the table.
💼
The Creatives & Entrepreneurs
Artists, designers, and business owners building beauty and opportunity for the community, one project at a time.
🗝️
The Leaders & Organizers
The people behind the scenes making sure Diaspora in Colour, and everything else Afrounity does, actually happens.
