It’s simply news reported by Black people, edited by Black people, and affecting the lives of Black people. That’s the National Black Network-a vital communications link between Black communities everywhere. It’s a bet that when you listen to an NBN station, you’ll know where it’s coming from.

Yet what takes more punishment? Spills, tracked-in dirt, even the air you breathe are constantly at work to shorten the lifetime of your precious furnishings. But the battle can be won, however. You can actually add years to the life and beauty of your carpets and furniture if you understand a few basic concepts of soiling and of soil removal. Essentially, there are two types of soil that must be controlled by different measures* One type is the loose, gritty soil that is tracked in from outside. Each of these soil particles has many sharp edges which grind away at the carpet pile or upholstery fabrics under ordinary use. Fortunately, this abrasive soil can be controlled by frequent vacuuming plus periodic deep-suctioning by professional cleaners. The second type of soil is the homemakers. It's the "atmospheric" soil that floats in the air and comes from cooking, exhausts, chimneys, and other sources, Duracleans employs a special absorbing foam which cleans carpets and furniture without soaking or mechanical scrubbing. Special equipment heatsand aerates chemical solutions into a highly-absorbent, semi-dry foam which is applied by hand and removed quickly by warm natural sponges, leaving furnishing "flower fresh" and really clean.
