This new group wants to accomplish three specific things:
- Deliver the most relevant and beneficial information and network for African American’s in the technology field or pursuing a career in technology.
- Focus on creating a community in which African American’s are comfortable, motivated and inspired to pursue careers in technology.
- Establish effective communicaton between African American’s in order to help drive individual growth, development and long-term success.
All of us can learn more from their website.
At the end of the day I'm in favor of anyone who has a passion for people of African descent that seek to advance themselves in the information technology industry. What are your thoughts about this new organization -- Blacks In Technology?

Thanks for recognizing the Blacks In Technology community site on your blog. We welcome everyone to come and experience our site. www.blacksintechnology.net
Anon - My hope is that the two brothers who created BIT will adopt BETF as their official charitable organization of choice and support / promote us to their members as a way to give back financially to support Black students (scholarships and SITES program) and IT professionals (BDPA IT Institute and such).
Time will tell if such a strategic alliance is created. If you can help ... please do so!
