Empowering Storytellers & Creators in Digital Media Too often, the loudest “voices” shaping a nation’s image aren’t the ones living its reality. That’s why the Vickie Remille Prize for Journalism and New Media was created—to invest in real storytellers and digital creatives who can redefine how Sierra Leone is seen. Because while TikTok dances may trend, they don’t always translate into true influence in the local economy. A million followers abroad doesn’t necessarily shift narratives at home.

A viral clip is being twisted online, with some claiming Joy Reid said “Whites can’t invent anything.” Fact-checking shows that’s misleading—she was actually criticizing cultural appropriation. The truth? Both Africans and Europeans contributed massively to human progress, from ironworking and Black inventors like Garrett Morgan to Bell’s telephone and Berners-Lee’s World Wide Web. What often gets erased is how colonialism and exploitation underdeveloped Africa while fueling Western wealth. 📽️

An interview featuring Charles Manson offers a chilling and controversial glimpse into the thoughts and ideology of a man whose actions left a lasting mark on criminal history. Rather than glorifying him, the conversation is often examined to understand how manipulation, extremist beliefs, and unchecked influence can lead to devastating consequences. Such interviews continue to spark debate about media responsibility, justice, and why society remains fascinated by figures linked to extreme viole
