Emancipate Africa: The Ihe podcast proposal.
ABSTRACT/SUMMARY:
The Ihe podcast is going to be one like have never been seen before. This is because it is designed with intent to create a shift in paradigm of thought throughout the world, especially in the mind of the African in how the black race is viewed. This is not an agitation based movement, but rather one that seeks to massively emancipate and mentally liberate a generation out there looking for their identity, a race of people who do not have a solid understanding of where they’re coming from and therefore have a blurred vision of their future. This digital product is one that will provide solution on a massive scale in form of this podcast.
The Ihe podcast is going to have new editions being put out monthly, but however, the work is one that happens all round the month as we intend building systems that makes sure that the need for people’s inquiry is adequately met. We envisage that people will have questions about certain things said on an edition for example; we would have media channels that address these things, so we are sure we’re making real-time impact in the lives of our audience. We would interact with our audience through our YouTube channel, social media pages, telegram community chat, and so on.
Basically, this podcast would be put out in two forms. There would be the audio, which would be put out for people to stream free of charge, and the video which would be shot and made to the high resolution YouTube standard on our channel for all to see.
Also, we would be doing a lot of research work to make sure that we’re bringing the people with quality and authentic information. We would also be bringing on board, people who are reputed Esoterics and sages who are grounded in the understanding of the authentic African history, culture and Spirituality. All these are what would be put together to make the Ihe podcast an outstanding one.
STATEMENT OF NEED:
So basically, the goal of every producer is to meet a particular need. However, people’s needs come in various forms, which also determines the nature the solution would take. In fact, this new age have taught us that most of man’s needs are non-tangible in nature . For example, need for seamless and effective communication, mental health needs, and so on.
More precisely, what we seek to address with the Ihe podcast is to sensitize Africans and create a generation of Africans who have endless questions on who they are, who they were, and the potential they carry in their DNA by a reason of their ancestry.
This is not just a podcast. It is going to be a product that will massively meet people’s educational and spiritual needs. In fact, many people do not know they have these needs because of the massive indoctrination of false and distorted ideologies about who they are. They are so busy trying to survive in the simulation of the matrix and have not had a taste of the freedom outside of it. For example, the moment men understood that they could communicate with someone else on another end of the earth in real time, they got stuck on the innovation; they probably thought they had a great life before then. They probably thought it couldn’t be better than sending letters. So we have a vision to bring esoteric knowledge to a whole generation and influence the status quo of things. We seek to make every individual be consciously tuned to the God within them so they can create realities and explore powers within that they never thought they had. This I would say, perfectly aligns with the new age ideology of decentralization. In this time and dispensation, the power of knowledge is not limited to an elite few. The privilege is there for everyone to tap from.
PROJECT ACTIVITY/METHODOLOGY AND OUTCOMES:
First off, it is worthy of note that the major members/executioners of this project are @chaos who’s an astute seeker of truth and multi-talented personality who is of ernomous value to the web 3 world at large. Also is @sammoofficial who’s on his journey to fulfilling his life’s purpose through the many talents he has been using to establish his imprint in the web2 space. These two came together to create this because they’ve found each other to be partners in purpose with a drive and passion to see true light prevail.
We have a strategy that is sure to yield results because we have a hack of the language of this generation. We also understand how big, and widely accepted the content creation industry is. It can only be better now that we have esoteric and liberating content with invaluable effects to show.
So basically, we would have accounts on Apple music, spotify, Audiomack, and so on. Our Visual content will be put on our Instagram (reels has more reach), TikTok account, YouTube platform. So we will distribute our content across digital platforms monthly, and promote it through a seasoned digital marketer and promoter. @sammoofficial is an artist and record producer with over 300k streams and counting to his name on his last EP release (with verifiable engagement). This is to make us understand that we have a team on ground that’s not a noob in the content creation and marketing game.
