The African American Web Connection, AAWC, is providing a doorway to Afrocentric web
resources for the African American web community and others seeking the total Black
web experience. To put it in a nutshell this web hobbyist is just having fun and
gaining valuable web experience; furthermore, I am trying to give something back to
my people. Having no special agenda, I truly welcome all suggestions dealing with the
content or layout of the pages making up the website. In my humble opinion, this site
belongs to the community. |
|
The website was created in 1995 as a public service. The current version of the
African American Web Connection is the result of a college capstone project. This is still a
nighttime and weekend avocation; consequently, the site is only updated biweekly. As
always, these pages change based on your valuable comments and suggestions. Do not
forget to check out my African American Churches page which (I believe) contains the
earliest collection of African American church "web pages" on the World Wide Web.
Pages for Kids is a nice place to visit
for the young and young at heart. I welcome any and all ideas about possible new web pages. |
|
This humble webmaster does not necessarily endorse each and every view expressed
on the resources provided; however, I believe all of them have a place in the fabric
which constitutes the Black experience in America. It is my sincerest wish that this
site will help you navigate the World Wide Web. Please email me or fill out
the "Feedback Form". As a general rule, I try to read all emails within 5 business days.

As a service primarily to the African American community, links

to provide only honest resources which will educate, entertain,
and benefit our people in a "positive" manner; however, as with
all resources please use common sense and reasonable caution. |

Dear Friends & Visitors:
Pardon me for begging for funds; however, the African American Web Connection (AAWC) needs
your help. If you are willing (and financially able), please consider donating to the AAWC.
Maintaining a website like the AAWC requires a lot of work; furthermore, web hosting on a fast
server is not inexpensive. While the exact future of this website is still evolving, currently this is
NOT a commercial website. Other than a very few miscellaneous dollars, we do not have web sponsors or any
other income sources for this website. Since monthly expenses are high and this Webmaster is a long-term
victim of the reduction of Information Technology (IT) jobs in the United States, I humbly ask for your
financial support in maintaining this website.
Regardless of your support or not, this website is still open to all who wish to visit it.
Supporting this website will help ensure that we can continue to deliver this service and
expand in various areas.
If you are 18 or over and wish to help support this website, please click the Pay Pal Donate button
and it will take you to their secure server so you can donate. It is up to you how much you give.
Whether you can afford to donate or not, your continued moral support (and passing the word) is always
appreciated.
With humble thanks,
William Jones
African American Web Connection, Founder
