AfriClassical On Afro-Netizen Blog Roll

AfriClassical has added the highly influential blog Afro-Netizen to its Favorite Blogs. In turn it has been added to the Afro-Netizen Blog Roll. The following motto and blog description are from Afro-Netizen:

"Afro-Netizen

"Dedicated to informing, inspiring and engaging afro-netizens and the communities they touch".
-Christopher M. Rabb, Founder/Chief Evangelist

About Afro-Netizen
Founded in 1999 by native Chicagoan and social entrepreneur Chris Rabb,
Afro-Netizen is a net-centric social experiment whose mission is to inform, inspire and engage afro-netizens and the communities they touch.

Technically speaking, an 'afro-netizen' is a Black 'citizen of the (Inter)net'. However, the connotation of this term coined by Rabb in the final moments of the 20th Century, bespeaks a more civic value to -- and utility of -- the Internet in one's life beyond its more consumer or individualistic applications.

What started as an informal e-mail-based news aggregation service for and about Blackfolk has blossomed into a burgeoning online community, having gained national visibility and momentum in the aftermath of the frenzied mainstream media (MSM) coverage of the then-nascent 'political blogosphere' during the 2004 election cycle."

Last week Afro-Netizen announced it will proudly sponsor and promote the
Presidential campaign video question project known as
10 Questions.com
