About Us

AFRISPORA AS A ‘MINDSTATE’ IS BASED ON THE LARGELY FORTUNATE AND NOT TOO COSTLY (AS IT CURRENTLY MEASURES) EXTROVERTED APPROACHES TO LIFE
+
SOCIO-CULTURAL AND LIFE DEVELOPMENTS THAT LED TO SITUATIONALLY-APPROPRIATE APPROACHES BEING A TYPICAL OCCURRENCE.

SINCE BENEFICIAL CERTAIN WAYS AND ACTIVITIES BECAME INTENTIONAL AS A CONSEQUENCE.

THIS BRAND IS THE BRAINCHILD OF DR. DONTRANEIL D. CLAYBORNE.

IT WAS TURNED INTO A ONLINE PRESENCE SINCE 2005

THE MAIN AIM HAS BEEN TO ORGANIZE REAL WORLD GATHERINGS THAT “CONNECTING THOSE THAT NEED TO BE CONNECTED!” OR PUT SIMPLY OUR OPERATING SLOGAN|VIBE|MANTRA| IS “CONNECTING THOSE CONNECTED!”

AS A NATIVE OF SOUTH(CENTRAL) LOS ANGELES YET CITIZEN OF THE MULTIVERSE, I HAVE LONG AIMED TO CONTRIBUTE ‘BENEFICIAL’ IN MY OWN LIFE AND TO ALL OTHERS I COME TO INTERACT WITH DURING THE COURSE OF ‘LIFE’. AS SUCH I HOPE MY POSTS AND OVERALL SITE CONTENT WILL BE ‘BEEFED UP AND WITH fewer TYPOS BUT HEY NO BUDGET YET! 🙂

DURING THIS YEAR OF RELAUNCH, RECONCEPTUALIZATION, AND CREATION OF NEW CONTENT…blah blah blah. THE POINT IS THANKS FOR CHECKING US OUT!

BACK TO THE STORY, IN 2000, I RETURNED HOME TO LOS ANGELES FROM MY TIME IN WASHINGTON, DC AT HOWARD UNIVERSIT. AT HOWARD UNIVERSITY,

I EARNED MY MASTER’S DEGREE IN HISTORY (1996-8) AND WEST BALTIMORE, MD WHERE I TAUGHT AT COPPIN STATE COLLEGE, THEN BUT NOW COPPIN STATE UNIVERSITY.

MY MASTER’S THESIS ASSESSED THE HISTORY OF “ETHNICITY AND GOVERNANCE IN NIGERIA”. BALTIMORE, MD (1999-2000)

IN 2005, THE CONCEPT BECAME AN OFFICIAL ENTITY.

IN 2007, AFRISPORA LAUNCHED AFRISPORA.COM
