Mission Statement

null

Since its birth in 1995, NoirTech Research, an internet-based company, has provided sports scholarship to educational institutions, museums, corporations, libraries and churches.

 

We focus on barrier breakers and historical firsts to illuminate social values and their economic impact on the hallowed institutions of football, baseball, basketball, boxing, track & field in mainstream America.

 

To achieve these objectives, we offer a variety of programs through lectures, designing exhibits, developing workshops, and hosting an academic conference Jerry Malloy each year since 1998.

 

Some of our services include; editing and fact-checking dissertations, thesis, books and articles on African American & Sports history.  We also provide photographs for various publications, develop museum exhibits and specialize in primary research.  Identification of vintage photographs and artifact appraisals are available for a fee.
