Pamela Ohene-Nyako is the creator, producer, host, and co-editor of The Afrolitt’ Webseries. In May 2016, she founded Afrolitt’, a bilingual literary platform rooted in antiracist, feminist and ultimately afrofuturist thought & practice.
Its mission is to expose and explore what is commonly referred to as contemporary African and/or Black Literature as a tool for critical knowledge, sharing and societal or personal change. The novels presented and discussed via the platform are all written by authors of African heritage; mostly women who interrogate ideological and social constructs.
Pamela’s connection with, passion for and understanding of Black literature, stem from her own experiences as a woman of African descent in Switzerland. Reading Black, and specifically Black woman authors, has been both therapeutic and liberating. It has significantly expanded her worldview and overall cultural awareness.
In addition to running Afrolitt', Pamela is also a PhD candidate and teaching assistant at the Departement of General History at the University of Geneva.
