Right there with you. Just like all those people that wanted to start 'Pinterest for Men', when you could...just use Pinterest.

Hey since i use a lot pinterest too, and I am a man too, and French, here is my favourite board : https://fr.pinterest.com/ludobos/t-as-pas-du-sel-/

We don't intend to be "Netflix for blacks" or "Netflix for African people only" too, that's a bizarre idea to me, in fact. We have some quality movies in our catalog, and we hope to make it discover to all of you people :)

Same reason why the BET channel exists. Africans want their own netflix. I love this idea! Great stuff here guys.
