    "What is Black Family Technology Awareness Week?

    Black Family Technology Awareness Week (BFTAW) is a national public awareness campaign designed to educate and empower African Americans through technology by preparing our communities to become an integral part of the fastest-moving industry of all time. As quoted by Tyrone D. Taborn, CCG's publisher and CEO, "The Black Family Technology Awareness Campaign was never about simple Internet access and mere computer ownership but rather about African Americans becoming true beneficiaries of the many assets of technology and all it has to offer." It is critical that we become a major part of the economy of the next millennium. As a community, we successfully leverage technology in school, at work, at home, in communications, and in almost every area of our lives."

    Until lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunters. ~African Proverb~
    If the truth of history is irrelevant to contemporary social norms and the use of political power, why is the truth of history shadowed beneath the egoistical thoughts of deranged controllers of the story. According to Ambrose Bierce, "History, n. an account mostly false, of events mostly unimportant, which are brought about by rulers, mostly knaves, and soldiers, mostly fools." His-story is rational justification for the exploration of humble people and his obsession with power for self-centered gratification.
    Hidden Colors tells a different side of the same story and inflates the self-worth of a humble people with truth. Hidden Colors is for people with a mind-set like Toni Morrison who said, "I'm
