Thomas Blair - The Audacity of Cyberspace

Thomas L Blair's Mission

In today's age, managing publication of one's work is a sign of personal liberation. My book, The Audacity of Cyberspace: The struggle for Internet power, is one result of my commitment to cyberfreedom for millions of the world's Internet poor communities.

Strikingly, it shows the brilliance of social networking in Black communities in the Internet landmark era - 1996-2006. This was a decade before the "net-generation" launched Senator Barack Hussein Obama into the White House.

The Audacity of Cyberspace is about cyber-action to empower communities
