Afrosphere Bloggers Association Recruitment Drive

Filed Under Good Causes |

We would like to invite you to become a member (or friend) of the Afrosphere Bloggers Association (ABA)!

We are a group of concerned African Diaspora bloggers who discuss problems that affect people of African descent, create solutions and action plans to solve those problems, and enact the plans using internet resources. We plan to use these methods to network with other organizations, working on similar projects and moving in the same directions, to provide life improving services to people of the African Diaspora.

We want to change the world and we can do it with your help. Everyone has a value in this project, whether it be contributing ideas, finding resources, doing research, connecting with bloggers, contacting the media, recruiting other members, spreading the word, connecting us to other organizations, or signing petitions. Every African Diaspora blogger is IMPORTANT and VALUABLE to our cause.

Please consider becoming a Friend of the ABA by joining one of our social networking groups (see below). If you are of African descent please consider becoming a registered member of the ABA. All you have to do is reply that you want to become a registered member and please include your screen name, reply email address, and blog address.

We hope that you will accept our invitation and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

The Afrosphere Bloggers Association

HOW TO BECOME A REGISTERED MEMBER OF THE AFROSPHERE BLOGGERS ASSOCIATION

1. If you are a person of African descent (Black) please fill out the “Want to Join the ABA” form on the front page of the forum at http://afrospear.jconserv.net/

2. Your membership request will be forwarded to the ABA Recruitment
Committee. After visiting your blog/website the Committee members will announce whether any of them will vouch for your membership. If at least two members vouch for your membership and there is no serious opposition then you will be welcomed as a member of ABA.

3. A welcome message will be sent to your email address with details about how to get involved with the group. The welcome to the ABA e-card will contain a welcome message, instructions to join the ABA Forum at http://afrospear.jconserv.net , and a link to the main section of the forum where new members must go to learn about ABA and how we function. You must complete your profile on the forum–especially with your blog or website address.

After these steps you will become a full member of The Afrosphere Bloggers Association! If you are a new member and you have not gone through this procedure then you have probably not registered as a member of ABA.

HOW TO BECOME A FRIEND OF THE AFROSPHERE BLOGGERS ASSOCIATION

If you are not a person of African descent (Black) then we would like to network with you, but you can not have an account on the ABA forum. The ABA Forum is a private workspace for people of African descent to develop self-determination and self-empowerment campaigns.

Individuals of non-African descent may join one of our many social networking sites, like MySpace, as a friend. Each site has a forum where ABA members and non-member friends can network, find ways to work together, and collaborate on activities that are in everyone’s best interest. Everyone is welcome on the social networking sites as friends and we look forward to working with you on these dedicated sites.

You are also welcome to visit and have discussions with us on the Solutions Blog at and all of our individual member blogs.
