Their goal is to increase awareness on the need to close the multicultural and gender gaps in Wikipedia as well as the number of people of African descent who actively partake in the Wikimedia and free knowledge, culture and software movements. In an interview<a href=" https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2023/02/09/celebrating-eight-years-of-afrocrowd-diversifying-wikipedia/" target="[object Object]"> for the Wikimedia Foundation</a>, executive Director Sherry Antoine described the complexity of this work: </p> <p style="padding-left: 30px;">“There are ways the African diaspora are represented that aren’t representative of us. A lot of the time, we don’t get to represent ourselves—other people make those decisions for us.

In 2022 they created a Wikimedia fellowship with Pace Gallery, where the Wikimedian-in-residence goal is to make <a href="https://www.pacegallery.com/culture-equity-black-lunch-table-wikimedia-fellowship/" target="[object Object]">Pace Gallery’s personal collection</a> more accessible to the public. The partnership aims to improve bibliographies of Black artists and spark critical conversations on accessibility to historical knowledge and how that accessibility is different across marginalized communities (<a href="https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2023/02/09/black-artists-belong-on-wikipedia-black-lunch-table-is-making-it-happen/" target="[object Object]">read about it further</a>).</p> </div> </article> <p></p>"
