Urban Life, The Black-Swedish Website

Urban life – www.urbanlife.se – is a website dedicated to the integration of Afro/Caribbean immigrants into Swedish society and the promotion of Black culture in Sweden. However, ever since it’s launch it has stirred up controversy. The idea of a Black Swedish website is obviously provoking to a lot of people, Blacks as well as Whites it seems.

Is there such a thing as Black culture and a Black identity? Is there a need for Black media outlets in Sweden? These and other questions shall be answered when Andy Collins and Christian Hofverberg present their website and discuss their goals and aims for the Afro-Swedish community.
