The Independent Business News Network was established in July of 2008. The goal of IBNN is to provide a different view of the local, national and global news and events that happen in the Black communities around the world. IBNN's expectations are to provide a level of coverage and investigative reporting not seen on local mainstream media, while covering Politics, Education, Money, Business, and Community events. IBNN is an affiliate of Black Politics in Minneapolis, Radical Black USA and other African American news sources. Comments, concerns and questions can be emailed to ibnnnews@gmail.com

"The Village is calling - Do events really help the masses or just a few? Mmmm"

Minneapolis, MN (IBNN NEWS Brief/Investigative Report/November 7, 2011)…This is alarming based on the number of people still not being served after the May 22, 2011 tornado. Source tell IBNN that former AAFS executive director and host of KMOJ-FM’s Urban Agenda is in line to receive a contact from the NCRT. Our sources tell us the individual involved had resigned her position as co-chair of the Transparency and Accountability committee.

IBNN NEWS will continue to investigate this story while we ask the question, “Where are the financial reports from the NCRT.”
