On the Eve of the Winter Olympics, Everything in Canada Ain’t Pretty 09/02/2010
Looks like athletes and fans won’t be the only ones converging on this year’s Winter Olympic games, which kick off this Friday in Vancouver. A sizable contingent of native protesters will also be on hand to speak out against the games being held on indigenous lands. Not a good thing, despite some deeply troubling anthropological assertions to the […]

Emo Vampire Movies Aren't for Whites Only [VIDEO] 09/02/2010
Dark Moon from Brandon T Jackson Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the movies, the Twilight series has been re-imagined for the rest of us. Why settle for the usual lily-white teen vampire movie when you can have so much more.

American Bar Association Calls For New Immigration Court 09/02/2010
According to the New York Times, the American Bar Association (ABA) is recommending the creation of a separate immigration court system that would be similar to federal courts that decide tax cases. Patrick Young at LongIslandWins.com describes the issues raised in the article: The immigration courts are not courts in the traditional sense of the word. Feder […]

Faultlines in Haiti: Who is Listening on the Ground? 09/02/2010
Haiti's devastation is metastasized into a roiling homelessness crisis, and aid groups warn of another potential mass displacement as the government considers shifting people to supposedly more organized encampments outside the capital. What do Haitian survivors think of the emerging plans? Many might not even have heard about them yet. It's imposs […]

New Orleans Needs More Than a New Mayor 08/02/2010
Written by Jordan Flaherty In a city consumed by the Superbowl and Mardi Gras celebrations, New Orleans elected a new mayor last weekend. Mitch Landrieu, the state’s current Lieutenant Governor, won 65% of the vote - almost twice the total of the other ten candidates combined. Landrieu will be the city’s first white mayor since his father held th […]

Is Black History Month Necessary? Tammy Johnson on KALW's Your Call [AUDIO] 08/02/2010
I really enjoy the push and pull of a good political conversation, especially ones that apply big questions of policy of philosophy to real life situations. That’s a good thing, since I seem to find myself in the middle of them these days -- from the hot debate about state budget cuts in social services at my beauty parlor last week, to the inquiry abo […]

Public Housing Residents: Trespassing in Their Own Home 06/02/2010
Last year, the arrest of Henry Louis Gates, Jr. after he tried to enter his own home jolted some Americans out of the post-election post-racial euphoria. The idea that a prominent elderly Harvard scholar could be nabbed for "disorderly conduct," stemming from suspicions that he was trespassing in his own home, seemed an absurd reminder of the preva […]

Wages and Immigrants: 'Cheap Labor' Might Give You a Raise 06/02/2010
If you were one of the legions of pissed-off jobless folks out in force at the National Tea Party Convention this week, demonstrating against the “illegals” taking “your job,” you're entitled to your opinion. But you should know that the guy supposedly stealing your livelihood probably gave you a raise this week. Countering the p […]

What It Means To Be Undocumented 06/02/2010
Every family, like every country, has a narrative about itself, a story they come back to over and over again, that they tell at parties, on the front stoop, over café. They share these cuentos—adding and subtracting details as years pass—to create a sense of themselves, of their communities, of where they've been and what they’ve over […]

Black Bookstore Celebrates 50th Anniversary in San Francisco 05/02/2010
It's not easy for independent bookstores these days, especially if you're a Black-owned business. But Marcus Books, a legendary family-owned bookstore operating in San Francisco's intensely gentrified Fillmore, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. From the San Francisco Chronicle: "There was an urgent need to have a source of knowledge ab […]

What Super Bowl XLIV Says About Race 05/02/2010
I have a confession to make: I'm not a big Colts fan. In fact, I'm a pretty big hater. And I can't stand Peyton Manning. But when it comes to this year's Super Bowl, I'm excited for all the wrong reasons -- and it has nothing to do with the commercials. The Saints playing the Colts is probably not a surprise to anyone, since they had […]

Friday Twitter Break: Haiti, Super Bowl, The Economy, Etc Edition 05/02/2010
We've got an eclectic round-up this week of the best of Twitter. People are sounding off on the new unemployment numbers that report a dip in joblessness; giving plenty of love to the New Orleans Saints linebacker Scott Fujita, who gives us many reasons to admire him; and talking about Haiti, and everything messed up with the post-earthquake recovery. B […]

Racial Divide Grows with Charter Schools Across the Country 05/02/2010
The Los Angeles Unified School District has more charters schools than any other school district in the country. Charter schools in L.A tend to serve underrepresented communities which are often either Black, Latino or Asian. This results in schools whose enrollments are largely monoracial. You can find similar scenarios across the country, for example, in T […]

Remembering Our History, Fifty Years After the Greensboro Sit-ins 04/02/2010
We're coming to the end of the first week of 2010's Black History Month, and there are a bunch of big milestones to celebrate and remember. On February 1, fifty years ago, four Black college students named Ezell Blair, Jr., David Richmond, Franklin McCain and Joseph McNeill, sat down at the Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Caroli […]
