This capability follows in the tradition of African Storytellers ("Griots") who preserved the culture and history of their people - handing down that history to the next generations.
One of the primary goals of BlackFacts.com is to protect and preserve the history of our people. So much of the history of people of color has been lost over the years and educational systems are cutting back or totally removing the contributions of people of color from the standard history textbooks. In many cases, subjects like "Social Studies" which focus on diverse cultural histories have been cut from the school curriculum altogether.
This new feature will allow us to expand on this mission, and puts the power of history into the hands of BlackFacts.com members.
Premium members will have the ability to become a part of history by submitting their personal bios or recommending the bios of other examples of cultural excellence and showcase the achievements/awards of these individuals with links to their products or services.
As a future offering, they plan to add Family Legacy membership options to allow members to submit and share their family history with each other and the world.
Membership Benefits include:
* Subscription to our Newsletter.
* Submit New Facts to our Editors for review and approval - All approved FACTS will be credited to the submitter.
* "My BlackFacts" page showing your favorite posts, news, facts and related content.
* Birthday Blast Newsletter - highlighting all Black Facts that share your birthday.

With more features and benefits being added all the time!
