About Us...

UrbanSocialites is at once an interactive Social community. It strives to enhance the cultural awareness of the urban-minded by profiling people of color in all genres. UrbanSocialites acts as a source of encouragement for the subjects of its profiles, as well as the subscribers exposed to them.

Our goal is to develop the Urbanite by defining individuality, stepping outside of the status quo and redefining the cultural limits of the subscriber's lifestyle. This community stands for diversity, holding no barriers to gender, race, or particular culture or subculture.
