Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

Enjoy your day Field!!!
BTW, why aren't you Whuteemoos talking about the biker gang madness in Texas?
I'll wait.......
We don't have to wait for Yīshēng to bring the stupid and racism....

It appears some Ferguson protesters have been getting paid to protest.
I am very optimistic about — about Iraq. I mean, this could be one of the great achievements of this administration.

Of course they got paid. Question is, were they paid minimum wage?
Democrats typically pay their protesters slave wages.
Not much outrage over the Google maps racist search.
Good thing Google donates dumbocrat.

If community organizing is like socialism, the organizers got paid a lot and the little people got nothing.
Which explains why the little people are whining about not being paid.
Newt nails it. Of course no one on the left will admit their failures have lead to cities turning into urban war zones.

And here i thought socialism was all about caring for the little people. Least that was in the mission statement of the socialist club young Barry O'belonged to....
Bill and Kinky like to finger each other's loose assholes.
Handle that business.
"Not much outrage over the Google maps racist search."
Probably because everyone, with the exception of idiots such as yourself, understands that this is not an intentional act by Google.
Google has put some "open-source" features into Google Maps to allow non-Google people to add information to the maps. (Why they thought this was a brilliant idea, I don't understand.) So of course, mischief-making hackers have abused these features to insert offensive material into the maps.
Last month, somebody added a note to a map of Pakistan, in which the Google Android robot is taking a piss on the Apple logo.

In a similar manner, bigots have been making use of "sponsored ads" on Twitter to send unsolicited messages to everyone over that social network, including offensive racist commentary and suggestions to transsexuals that they should kill themselves.
Again, the message content is coming from bigoted d-bag users of Twitter, not Twitter's staff. But Twitter does bear the blame for stupidly failing to review ads before they go out.
Really? We're back on the silly conspiracy theories about protestors being paid by "outside agitators"? It's not possible that black people actually don't like being shot by bad cops? A sinister cabal of hippies and Jews have to tell them to protest so they can collapse the social order and bring on #fullcommunism?
And what, no George Soros? I'm sure he'd be very hurt that his name didn't get mentioned in connection with the latest evil scheme.
Typical, Whuteemoos ignore other Whuteemoos with motorcycles and tattoos.
CHICKENS!!!!
IF Field would remove Yisheng from FN like he removed AB FN would be a much better and 'clean' blog.
Please Mr Field, consider this.
IF all Whuteemoos would immediatelay drop dead, the world would be a much better and 'cleaner' place.
Please Satan, come get your peeps.
Doc, shake off them haters. Ha!
*Said in the deepest bass voice you can imagine*
DOCTORRRR,PLEASE HAVE PATIENCE,I AM WORKING ON THE WHOOTEEMOO SITUATION! I AM STRIKING A DEAL WITH THE MAN UPSTAIRS, BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT THEM EITHERRRRRR!
BUUUUAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
AND ALSO FP HE WANTS NO PART OF HER/HIM.
BUUUAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!
AND WHOEVER ELSE WANTS TO COME ALONG FOR THE RIDE..ER ROAST...ER...FUN TIMES o_O
Buuuuaahahahahahahaha
ROAR!!!!
Let's let Gilligan's Island be an example to us... Seven white people on an island for over 20 years with no murders, no robbery, no riots, no arson. In fact, the only mischief on the island was caused by a monkey, some savages and a big, black spider. I think the lesson is quite apparent.
Did you know Hillary whiteham Clinton had two email accounts while she claimed to have one? That's a honkey for you. Lies, lies, lies! She's your next Lord and Master.
"Let's let Gilligan's Island be an example to us... Seven white people on an island for over 20 years with no murders, no robbery, no riots, no arson."
That's because everyone was too busy doing it with Ginger and Mary Ann to get into any serious trouble. (Also, there wasn't much to rob or riot over, unless you were into stealing the Professor's coconut-based technology.)
"Did you know Hillary whiteham Clinton had two email accounts while she claimed to have one? That's a honkey for you. Lies, lies, lies! She's your next Lord and Master."
Two emails? Saints preserve us! Did she litter and double park, too?
The apocalypse is surely near.

Well this is certainly not a very good example of white ingenuity.
All that time and they couldn't get off the damn island?
And a brilliant professor that can make a radio out of a coconut but can't fix a hole in a boat?
Ahahaha!You guys are so funny!
"Make a radio out of a coconut"
LOL!
"Well this is certainly not a very good example of white ingenuity.

Rotfl!!!!
What kind of a dumb a$$ uses Gilligian's Island as an example in the first place?
