I'm seeing online mentions of an initiative to increase DNA testing of African Americans by 23andme. The homepage does not mention this program, so here is the link. It would seem that the testing, which is not available yet, is free of charge. I don't know how much genealogical service is included with the free service, such as Relative Finder and notification of new matches. I submitted an email address to be notified of developments.
The excitement and hard work of unearthing those dead relatives. And no, I have not finished the family tree yet.

Free DNA testing for 10,000 African Americans?
