The NATIONAL BLACK PROGRAMMING CONSORTIUM
The NATIONAL BLACK PROGRAMMING CONSORTIUM (NBPC), in partnership with
Blackside, Inc., is offering 15-$5000 grants to professors of Historically
Black Colleges and Universities to create socially conscious media projects
with their students! The project, "The Eyes on the Prize Black College New
Media Project," is part of a national outreach campaign designed to coinside
with the rebroadcast of the landmark six-hour documentary series, "Eyes on
the Prize" to air in October. This initiative is designed to extend learning
opportunities to HBCUs by using media, like podcasting, audio programs and
short video projects to work with students to create original media-based
works that address contemporary issues of civil rights, American history and
local and national leadership. Professors from all different departments who
teach at an HBCU are eligible to apply. The deadline for applications is
September 30, 2006. To receive an application, or for more information,
please contact: hbcueop2006@nbpc.tv
