If the Foundation wanted to enquire, or do something about the relative 
dearth of African American editors, a good person to contact would probably 
be Henry Louis Gates

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Louis_Gates

He's a Harvard professor, famous for having been arrested on the front 
porch of his own house by a white policeman who thought he was a burglar. 
More saliently, he is noted as the author of 

Africana: The Encyclopedia of the African and African American Experience

He also co-founded The Root, an African American online magazine

There are lots of search hits for Wikipedia on theroot.com, so it's 
not like black people don't read it.
