About us

Welcome to Nofi, a dynamic and committed platform founded on February 21, 2014, by Christian Dzellat-Nkoussou and Doudou-Jacques Faty. Our story began in 2004 with a simple t-shirt slogan, “Noir&Fier” (“Black&Proud”), expressing a deep desire for recognition and affirmation.

Today, Nofi is more than a media outlet; it’s a space for sharing, reflecting, and celebrating the richness of Black culture. Inspired by the original slogan and meaning “to dream” in Malagasy, our name reflects our mission: offering a fresh and in-depth perspective on African, Caribbean, and Afro-descendant history, culture, politics, and news.

At Nofi, we take pride in highlighting diverse voices and stories often overlooked. We strive to deliver high-quality, tailored editorial content, providing a rich, educational alternative for those looking to expand their horizons.
