Unapologe cally Black is the story of Doni Glover's trek from the streets of East Bal more to two decades of journalism that has taken him to Canada, Jamaica, Tanzania, Ethiopia and Jordan. Along the way, he has hosted the longest-running customized news talk show in the na on at Radio One. More importantly, he joined the Fourth Estate twelve years ago when he founded www.bmorenews.com. Since then, his flagship online news service now garners one million hits per month with visitors from 200 na ons. Boas ng one of the largest African American news video libraries in the na on, Bmorenews.com has become a voice for the voiceless and a vehicle for change - beginning in the DMV (DC/Maryland/Northern Virginia). Addi onally, Glover owns DMGlobal Mar- ke ng & Public Rela ons, a firm dedicated to helping clients expand their footprint in the black community. To date, he works with poli cians, lawyers, businesses, non- profits, ar sts, and authors to help them gain much-needed exposure.
