Hello all, For the month of February many organizations across the country are celebrating Black Family Technology week. Some groups are doing week long activities while others just pick a day in the month of February to raise the awareness of the importance of technology in the Black community. The local Chapter of the Black Data Processing Associates had an exhibit in their office two weeks ago to celebrate BFTW.
One of the things I would like to attempt next year is to develop collaborative opportunities to celebrate BFTW. Do you know of a local initiative to help reduce the digital divide? If you do, please share the information on this network. From this I can gather all the players in this arena and hopefully do something big next year in Northeast Ohio to celebrate BFTW.
