I am really sick right now, so my posts (and comments) will be few and far between until i feel better.  But i had to make sure that yall knew about the first Erase Racism Carnival.  Thanks to Rachel for putting this together.  Here’s the call she put up:

Ally Work is hosting a Blog Carnival called the Erase Racism Carnival. Here is the information:
