The goal is to distribute conferences with African and African-American themes throughout North America. It was originally conceived of by Ken Onwere, and implemented with the help and skill of Idette Vaughan(The BlackNet), Alex Hartley(Alex's Place), Nathaniel Saunders(Minority Affairs), and John Alston(Vulcan-Net). For more information about Afronet, please post a message to SYSOP on any of the boards listed above. * (c)1993 Arthur R. McGee & Associates(AKA Africans Around the World)
You all just do not know the kind of stuff we used to deal with in the bad old days. I haven't spoken to Art McGee in a long time, not for any good reason. I wonder if I can find any of the conversations we used to have about cyberspace in the early 90s. It would be fascinating. Where is Carter Bing?
