Good Sunday Morning Family, (Contact Information At Bottom Of Page) It's your friendly neighborhood "Digital Drummer" again (smile) For those that are new to my online journal/Blog, I am online journalist and entrepreneur (see About Us at www.citylightssoftware.com). Unlike traditional journalist/Blogest, who write original articles and news, what I do is pass messages of interest from one website to another...like the drummers of old Africa. Our goal at the City Lights Reporter is to keep the Black Diaspora informed with timely, relevant, and empowering information about Afrocentric and multicultural issues, people and technology. The message below came from a unique and informative Pan-African website...TheBlacklist(www.theblacklist.net). The Black List is a forum for keeping present the conversation of freedom and self determination for Africans at home and abroad. I strongly recommend this site for those that are seeking news and information from a Pan-African or international perspective. Feel free to past this online journal on to your network of online friends and family.
