Community Bridge @MME-NOV 2011: Black Techies, Diaspora Survival & Literacy - Not to miss!


The Community Bridge Initiative is designed to bridge resources from higher ed schools, media institutions and local professionals, organizations and change agents from the community, to address social issues, counter the exclusion of cultural education in schools and reeducate the community to embrace its brilliance. The 3 ways we accomplish this goal are below.
