Our Ambition
The Melanin ID magazine provides a high quality platform for creative professionals to be connected, published and recognized worldwide.
Each application is carefully reviewed and a few creatives are selected for an interview and feature in the magazine.
Our ambition is to spread our content and our magazine throughout the African diaspora. This allows our star photographers and videographers to have the opportunity to be recognized worldwide through their work.
