GREENVILLE, Miss. – October 17, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
Lee Arnold Green Sr., author of “The Answer to the Subjective Process of Drug Addictions and Natural Addictions,” “The Book of Affinitive Life to the Natural Side of Life,” and “The Book of Life to the Spirit Side of Life,” has completed his new book “The 21st Century Black History: From the Atlantic Slave Trade in America to Its Impact on African Americans Today”: a gripping and potent work that discusses racism as a covert systemic source that is celebrated, represented, and honored in American society.
Lee Arnold Green Sr. discusses the purpose behind his work, writing, “This book was written to give the public a synopsis of black history in America, from the beginning of the Atlantic slave trade to this present day, to give rise to the understanding and importance of racism in the world and especially America. It is to shine light on family trees, family roots, and the importance of family reunions, as well as to show the difference between epigenetics and genetic inheritance. Every man, woman, and child needs a fair chance of knowing from whence he or she came as well as whether or not anyone inherits racism.”
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Lee Arnold Green Sr.’s educational work encourages readers to examine their American roots and question why some people discriminate against people of color, especially black people.
Readers who wish to experience this impactful work can purchase ‘The 21st Century Black History: From the Atlantic Slave Trade in America to Its Impact on African Americans Today’ at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.

Partnership with community groups works to improve the state’s ranking for broadband coverage.
CONWAY, N.H. – October 17, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
As a national nonprofit connecting technology donors with organizations serving people in need of computers, Digitunity supports the state of Arkansas in working with community-based groups to close the digital divide afflicting the state’s marginalized residents. They do this through their Digital Opportunity Network, comprised of 1,500 organizations across the U.S.
In July, Heartland Forward, a Bentonville nonprofit, announced the organization of a coalition of over a dozen Arkansas-based organizations. Its goal is to expand internet access throughout the state by supporting local initiatives and securing federal funding to ensure high-speed internet is more accessible and affordable across Arkansas.
According to findings from the Arkansas State Broadband Manager’s Report, as of June 2020, Arkansas is 50th in the nation for broadband coverage. Only 79% of the state’s population has internet service with speeds of at least 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. As recently as 2022, there are still 210,000 households in the state lacking adequate broadband access.
“Having a connected computer and the skills to use it productively is a fundamental need in today’s society,” said Scot Henley, executive director of Digitunity. “Since its founding, Digitunity has partnered with several nonprofit organizations in Arkansas, with wide-ranging missions from youth-focused projects to life skills and digital literacy for adult learners, all with a shared mission of bridging the technology gap.”
Digitunity has six Digital Opportunity Network members in the state:
These distribution partners provide technology to adults looking for jobs, schoolchildren, and nonprofit organizations like career and technical centers. As of 2021, Digitunity and its Network have distributed 273 devices in Arkansas. Their body of work connecting donors of technology with recipient organizations serving people in need spans nearly 40 years.
Since Digitunity’s inception, thousands of people have benefitted from its efforts. Its perspective has been shaped by decades of experience creating local impact through the benefit of a national lens. As an independent, national nonprofit focused on advancing digital equity through device ownership, Digitunity is unique in the digital inclusion landscape.
One way Digitunity demonstrates this uniqueness is by partnering with local organizations and governments to benefit members of these communities. One such way they’re doing this is by helping state and local governments, like those in Arkansas, create digital equity plans. This action was inspired by the landmark Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will expand broadband infrastructure and enable eligible households to obtain home broadband access and a connected device. Digitunity sees this initiative as an opportunity to help the state of Arkansas as they develop a digital equity plan. The goal of this plan is to expand access to connected devices for all Arkansas residents.
In response, the organization has developed recommendations for state digital equity plans. This expertise in both supply and community distribution gives Digitunity the ability to effectively partner with coalitions, cities, and states to create sustainable device access solutions.
