hat tip: Automatic Preference
This video is from July, so it obviously doesn’t cover a lot of the recent developments. However, it is a good (brief) primer for folks who aren’t quite sure how the Jena 6 case came about. To find out more, check the blogosphere!
RaceWire, the ColorLines blog, has published the 15th Erase Racism Carnival. I could be mistaken, but I believe this is the largest carnival yet! Thanks to everyone at ColorLines who helped put it together and all the folks that contributed. Here is a snippet from the introduction:
This month we wanted to highlight some topics we feel don’t get enough time in the sun. So we sought out several pieces on topics that matter: Media Representations, the Green Economy and Black/Brown relations.
In addition, we grouped the blogs under a few other topics we hope you find pertinent and interesting:
–Race and the Green Economy
–Race, gender, and the media
–Black/Brown relations
–Historical identities
–Whiteness revisited
–Darfur
We still don’t have a host for the August edition. So if you are interested, please drop me a line (veganwonder [at] gmail.com).
The 14th Erase Racism Carnival is up at White Anti-Racist Parent.
