Black Speaks Back (est. 2016, Brussels. Based in Amsterdam) is a Belgo-Dutch grassroots platform dedicated to amplifying Black narratives from the Netherlands and Belgium. We facilitate discussion, conduct art-based research, and create poetic short films.​ Our work has been featured on a dozen film festivals, conferences, and cultural centers across the world. EUphoria (2018), our very first film, world-premiered at the Pan African Film and Art festival in Los Angeles (the world's largest Black film festival), and was awarded the prize for Best fiction at the Belgian Breedbeeld short film competition. ​With this platform, we aim to create a community hub were our own work is showcased alongside the audiovisual and literary work of other Black creatives and critical thinkers. ​​​
