"We are pleased to be collaborating with the Black Heritage Network as it prepares to launch this exciting new programming concept. The importance and significance of the African American contribution to our history, art and culture - including sports - has not, as a programming matter, enjoyed the energy and intensity that is projected by BHN. We eagerly anticipate this effort."

David J. Stern, Commissioner
National Basketball Association

"As the President and Executive Director of MMTC, I am very proud to announce our incubation of the Black Heritage Network, Inc. (BHN), the nation’s first 24/7 cable and satellite network devoted exclusively to the history, art, and culture of African Americans. BHN has been in development for several years and is a programming idea that is long overdue on commercial television. I have personally reviewed and am impressed by BHN’s original programming line-up, its management team, advisory board and business strategy. This is a channel to be proud of."

David Honig, Co-founder and Executive Director of MMTC, the Minority Media and Telecommunications Council
