I appreciate the new community enhancements and merging more with the rest of the site. The News coverage is the place I go daily as I find it the best for African Americans on the Web while their Entertainment coverage is clearly the best as well. I find the new navigation stronger then before and the load time is lightening fast. BlackVoices keep up the great work.
