NOIR Labs was created for such a time as this. In partnership with collaborators like yourself, we are delivering a world in which Blackness is centered, celebrated and elevated, and in which Black people are as valued as all other racial, cultural and ethnic groups.

When global Black Genius is unified, organized and mobilized, the rest of the world will naturally fall into place, as eradicating the suffering of the most oppressed naturally uplifts everyone else. Liberation is the only outcome we are entertaining, and we are grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this outcome in our own ways. NOIR Labs is a hybrid social enterprise featuring for-profit and non-profit entities. Join us in this work as a partner, donor or registered member.

The Portal to African Intelligence (PTAI)

• The Portal to African Intelligence is a digital directory and museum curating the finest, most visionary Black art, genius and storytelling for all to connect with, learn from and be infused by. The Portal curriculum and content intentionally inspire pride in Africa’s contributions to global development, educating us on the most glorious ways that People of African Descent (PoAD) have helped build our current world and how we are crafting a Liberated Black future. As one of NOIR Labs’ many secret pathways to African Intelligence, the PTAI provides a curated space in which dreamers gather to visualize the Highest Good possible for our world. Your donation will support curriculum development as well as the discovery, aggregation and curation of the premium content and creative assets that are presented in the Portal.  Donate now.
