What is TAAN?

Over the past couple of weekends we have been taping "Community Conversations @taan" hosted by Tyrone Darden and have had an opportunity to talk to and get various perspectives from different people throughout our community.  We've had community activists, entrepreneurs; authors; public speakers; educators; writers; pastors; and more to come out and participate in our community conversations.

Oh...I didn't tell you what TAAN is...TAAN is a blog that we have been testing over the past couple of years to bring you local news, but soon realized that we have a global reach...so our tagline is "A Local Feel...with a Global Reach".  TAAN is the acronym for The African American Network and the web address is theafricanamericannetwork.blogspot.com.  

TAAN will be broadcasting videos of interviews of local San Antonians that address issues that directly affect our community.  "Community Conversations @taan" is the title of our community show where we will discuss various topics on how to improve our community.  

We will be broadcasting a new show...coming soon...called TAAN@night with the featured host, Miss Neka from Tha1 Radio Station.  She will feature on her shows individuals who make the Arts, Culture and Entertainment come to life in San Antonio and to give these artists the exposure they need to become a household name.

We are looking for input from you and ideas on how we can bring information to you that is informative and relevant to your lifestyle.  

We are in our infancy stages and hope that you will continue to view our segments and invite others to do the same.  We currently have viewers in over 20 countries and aspire to expand our messages across the country and the globe
