Africa’s Moment
Rewriting the African Story
MORE THAN A BOOK LAUNCH
The release of the new edition of Africa’s Moment by Pete Ondeng marks the beginning of a powerful movement—a call for Africans to awaken, reflect, and reclaim the continent’s narrative with pride, clarity, and purpose.
First published in the early 2000s, the book offered a bold, hopeful vision of Africa’s potential. Now reimagined for today’s realities, it invites a new generation to engage with Africa’s unfolding story and shape its future from within. Blending personal insight with incisive analysis, Ondeng explores themes such as leadership, identity, digital disruption, debt, and global power shifts—offering a grounded, urgent, yet hopeful call to action.
This is not just a book—it’s a catalyst for change. It challenges outdated mindsets, ignites fresh dialogue, and amplifies a rising wave of continental consciousness rooted in self-belief, cultural pride, and visionary leadership.
SHAPINGNEW NARRATIVES
The Africa’s Moment (AM) movement is a youth-driven initiative uniting voices from across Africa and the diaspora. Through campus debates, public forums, a podcast series, documentaries, competitions, and creative expressions in music, art, and performance, AM will engage communities and amplify authentic African stories across digital platforms.
A GLOBAL COALITION FOR IMPACT
At the heart of Africa’s Moment is a growing coalition of people and organizations who believe in Africa’s promise and are ready to be part of its unfolding story.
We are bringing together a vibrant network of changemakers—students and scholars, artists and entrepreneurs, faith leaders, community builders, philanthropists, media voices, and forward-looking institutions—united by a common purpose: to reclaim Africa’s narrative and shape a future grounded in dignity, justice, and opportunity for all.
As part of this coalition, you will join a powerful community of visionary thinkers and doers, gain access to meaningful partnerships and initiatives across the continent and the diaspora, and contribute to something larger than any single effort—a continental awakening.
Together, we will co-create platforms for dialogue, mobilize talent and resources, and amplify African voices in ways that inspire, disrupt, and transform.
