Primarily the African American experience is utilized as a frame of reference to posit solutions that affect everyone's lives from subjects ranging from social injustices to better lifestyle practices. We believe that the community issues can best be addressed under the proverbial "Shade Tree" wherein information is freely dispensed and received.
