Support Independent Black Media

Onumba Communications established Internet presence on February 21, 2003 as a modest tribute to our beloved leader the late honorable Minister Malcolm X.

On this day in 1965, Minister Malcolm X was assassinated as he delivered a speech at the Audubon Ballroom in Manhattan New York.

On this day this year, Onumba Communications joined a handful of dedicated pool of black independent media establishments committed to addressing the information and resources needs of the global black community. The information services we offer as well as some of the community events we plan to hold are free and geared towards sustaining the vibrancy of the black community.

We know that there is no paucity of organizations seeking your financial help, from the National Defense Council to Protect the Whales to the National Wild Turkey Federation to the numerous organizations out there determinedly toiling to preserve the rights of spotted owls.

There is also a deep roster a black organizations asking for your help. Without a doubt, these black groups offer credible services to the community and supporting them is immeasurably laudable. The community of black independent media groups, including Onumba Communications would also like to ask for your help so that we can sustain this vital service we provide to the black community.

Think about it for a moment. How much of contemporary and historical issues of significant importance to black people receive satisfactory coverage by the dominant news networks of CNN, NBC, ABC, FOX, MSNBC and others?

Far too often, black faces grace our TV sets only when a brother is handcuffed and escorted to the police cruiser or when there is a smoking gun drug bust. Tragically, these depressing and disparaging negative images to a large degree results to a near complete drowning out of the immensely positive and laudable part of who we are as a people.

As a credible part of the remedy, we must provide an alternative information depot to black children and adults that highlight positive role models and constructive social attitudes worthy of emulation and applause in the black communities.

Let us highlight our visible role models for black children to identify with, rather than dangle our seductive pathological vices for them to indulge in.

Onumba Communications is deeply committed to offering a comprehensive package of alternative stream of information to nurture the intellectual vibrancy of black children while providing adults open access to vital research center that educates, entertains, informs and empowers.

We are profoundly excited about launching this venture. We strongly believe that it offers vital services to the black community. We hope that you will find the information on this web site very useful and abundantly reflective.

We would appreciate a financial contribution of any amount from you to sustain the level of work necessary for staying the course and fulfilling our stated mission of serving the black community. Please be rest assured that whatever financial contribution you make will undoubtedly be used to improve and expand the resources we offer.

If you decide to make a contribution, please make check payable to: Onumba Communications.
