The Black World Today

The Black World Today was a news and opinion website founded in July 1996 by Don Rojas. Herb Boyd served as National Editor. The website’s mission was to "chronicle the daily social, political, cultural and economic realities of Black communities and countries." Although the website is now defunct, its affiliated Internet radio network Black World Radio, which was also started by Rojas, has remained active as part of Black World Media Network.
The Black World Today had numerous regular contributors, including Conrad Worrill, Ron Daniels, Ron Walters, Earl Ofari Hutchinson, Bill Fletcher Jr., Hugh Price, Manning Marable, and Kevin Powell.
TBWT was not aligned with any specific political parties but supported agendas that were striving for universal peace. It advocated that black people should invest in new technologies to increase progress in a knowledge-based global economy, in the belief that the mass medium of the Internet could be a means for further empowerment in the U.S. and around the world.
