The AfAmReport is a web portal started by a frequent commentor on The State Of . . .
“afamreport.com is an Internet portal designed to make news and reading materials relevant to the black community available at a single, convenient site,” says Sid Holmes, one of the site’s founders. “We are black America’s ‘virtual newsstand’.”
Similar in concept to a wood and nails newsstand, afamreport.com is divided into separate sections: Headlines, Sports Headlines, regional African American Newspapers, Black Commentary, Life & Style, Magazines, AfricanNews and a College/Greek higher education section devoted to HBCUs, scholarship information and greek letter organizations. “RapCity” is a compilation of music, lifestyle and hip hop sites placed on a separate page. In addition, the site features a daily news and a daily sports article, a spotlight article updated twice weekly, and a “Site of the Week” highlighting a black interest website.
It’s always good to see The State Of . . . the Digital Divide is shrinking.
