Over the years, Mama has come in contact with some wonderful websites that she feels you might benefit from. Here is a list of some of her favorites.

You will find great resources to learn more about art, Africa, and other issues which concern African people. Additionally, one of the things Mama would like to see is more women in business. Some of the sites below are sites of women business owners, others are informational sites telling women how they can go into business from themselves.

Although Mama Afrika does her very best to thouroughly check out these sites, she cannot be responsible for their content. If you have an issue concerning one of the following sites though, please let us know; because recommending good sites which are compatible with Mama Afrika's ethics and beliefs is important to us.
