POLITICS IN COLOR: ROAD TO NOVEMBER CAMPAIGN

WHAT IS POLITICSINCOLOR.COM? We are the first minority owned, broadband video network and informational portal to cover political topics affecting people of color in America – Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native and Arab Americans. Our online community is fueled by the enthusiasm shared by people across the country motivated to actively participate in all aspects of the political process – from registering to vote, working for political candidates and going to vote. WHAT WE OFFER? Our innovative technology platform offers high-quality, exclusive news, interviews and commentary segments. We also provide interactive blogs, polls and surveys about political issues starting with the 2008 presidential, congressional and senate campaigns. Through the use of syndication technology, we can deliver current political news topics, video commentary and live broadcasts to our online community 24 hours a day. According to the Pew Research Center, “The surge in youth turnout has occurred in a diverse collection of states, including those with large African-American populations (Georgia, South Carolina), those that are nearly all-white (Iowa, New Hampshire), and one with a large Hispanic population (California).”
