This is who we are...

The name In Black World comes from T'Keyah's solo performance piece of the same name wherein the main character, Cryssy, a little girl of seven, envisions a culturally corrected world where black people are safe, self governed, prosperous and self-respecting. - R. Carlos Nakai describes Black World as the place of creation and emergence. John Johnson's Black World was an intelligent, progressive magazine for politically and culturally minded African Americans. - In Black World...Inc. publishes literature, manufactures products, and has film and television projects in development. In Black World...'s mission is to produce and encourage the creation and emergence of intelligent, progressive, spiritual, politically and culturally minded products, projects, activities and thought. In Black World… is a division of T'Keyah Keymáh, Inc.
