Our Story
For too long, mainstream media has misunderstood our culture, our stories, and our experiences. NoirPlus was born from a vision to create an authentic streaming platform that celebrates the richness and diversity of Black and Brown voices.
As a sister brand to NoirTube, our content creation platform, NoirPlus delivers both on-demand streaming and programmed channels featuring content made by us, for us. From news and documentaries to entertainment, kids' programming, and cultural exploration — we're building a media ecosystem that truly represents our communities.
Why We Need Your Support
We're proud of what we've built so far: 25+ themed channels, original programming, and a growing library of content that centers our experiences. But to truly compete with mainstream platforms and expand our reach, we need our community behind us.
Your contribution will directly fund:
- Original Content Production: Creating high-quality documentaries, series, and films that tell our stories authentically
- Creator Support: Providing resources and opportunities for Black and Brown filmmakers, journalists, and content creators
- Technology Enhancement: Improving our streaming capabilities to deliver a seamless viewing experience
- Educational Programming: Developing content that preserves our history and empowers our youth
Our Vision
Imagine a streaming service where you never have to search for representation — because it's built into everything we do. A platform where our children see themselves reflected, our history is honored, and our future is imagined through our own lens.
This isn't just about entertainment. It's about reclaiming our narrative, supporting our creators, and building generational wealth through media ownership.
