The World Wide Web is the greatest source of information used by
students and teachers, media and library professionals, as well as
the general public. There is so great a flow of information that it
is necessary to have a tool for guiding one to the best and most
reliable sources. This important new guide to the African American
experience in cyberspace fills this need for people in all areas of
Black Studies and Multiculturalism. There is no search engine list
that can match the quality of sites to be found in this
book.Alkalimat provides an easy to use directory to the very best
websites that deal with the African American Experience. The first
section covers every aspect of African American history, while a
second section deals with a diverse set of topics covering society
and culture. Each chapter has a brief essay, extensively annotation
on the five best sites for each topic, and then a group of good
sites and a short bibliography. This book is designed for a course
at the high school or college level. This book should be kept near
every home computer that people use to surf the web for Black
content.Most people have found out that the major corporations and
governments have been the dominant uploaders of information into
cyberspace. This volume is different because it is a serious
introduction to the full democratic use of the web. These websites
will introduce people to the people who are serious about ending
the digital divide because they are busy uploading information
about the most excluded and marginalized people, the African
American community. Many of these sites are being established by
Black Studies academic programmes, as well as community based
organizations and institutions.
