The mission of Ebony Technology 's members is to learn, develop, perpetuate and apply all forms of computer technology to the advancement of people of African descent and their communities. Ebony Technology seeks to examine this technology in relationship to the historical and cultural paradigms of African Americans in order to ensure a healthy future. This is achieved by reading different trade magazine, attending computer seminars, collaborating with computer professionals, examining innovation and keeping up with research. Members are encouraged to learn parts of the computer and their function. Furthermore, members have become knowledgeable of many kinds of software and their applications to a variety of tasks.
Members subscribe to different trade magazines and they attend computer shows regularly.
Earlier discussion addressed the need to become productive in this technology. Many of the programs being developed exclude the cultural and historical content of Africans and African Americans. Nor are the programs addressing the problems that we face. Our discussions revealed the need for us to develop or encourage the development of programs that are more suitable to our needs. The technology is dynamic, growing and changing at an incomprehensible rate.
