PAN AFRICAN SPACE STATION

Chimurenga, a pan African platform of writing, art and politics founded in 2002. Drawing together a myriad voices from across Africa and the diaspora, Chimurenga takes many forms operating as a platform for free ideas and political reflection about Africa by Africans.

Outputs include a journal of culture, art and politics of the same name; a broadsheet called The Chronic; the Chimurenga Library – an ongoing invention into knowledge production and the archive that seeks to re-imagine the library; the African Cities Reader – a publication of urban life, Africa-style; and the Pan African Space Station (PASS) – an online radio station and pop-up studio.

The aim of these activities is not just to produce new knowledge, but rather to express the intensities of our world, to capture those forces and to take action. 

As Fela puts it, simply: who no know go know.
