"Half a century after Little Rock, the Montgomery bus boycott and the tumultuous dawn of the modern civil rights era, the new face of the movement is Facebook, MySpace and some 150 black blogs united in an Internet alliance they call the
AfroSpear.
Older, familiar leaders such as Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond, are under challenge by a younger generation of bloggers known by such provocative screen names as Field Negro, thefreeslave
and African American Political Pundit. And many of the newest struggles are being waged online."

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."

Well you always did wonder what it would be like if Sarah Palin was President.
PX
No way! You mean you guys actually sleep in the same room? In the same bed?
Well, yeah.
Psychotic depression micro aggression facial expression
Trump with envy in his heart, "Wish Malania looked at me like she wants to rip my clothes off..."
"And he actually called ME 'low I.Q.' Can you believe this turd?"
Field, how come Maurice Ashley doesn't show up on any 'famous Jamaicans" or "famous Jamaican-Americans" list? He's an International Chess Grandmaster, author and competition organizer, coach of U.S. teen champions, not like he could run fast or anything.
And I thought all carrots were green on top!
With a damn dangerous threat to America/Americans like Drumpfuck, who the hell needs ISIS?
Doug@11:25 is going to be hard to beat.
Morning No.
Mika: "See! I told you that if we removed our lips from Trump's backside, he would immediately throw a Twitter tantrum!"
Joe: "Oh well. We're just doing our part in helping him reach a 90% disapproval rating and end his very short presidency in total disgrace."
Drumpf has always been a disgrace. What we are waiting for is the lowest limit-if there is one.
"This asshole again"?
Mika: "My God, his hands are small."
Who the hell does Milania think she is telling me I need a face lift! She's needs a face lift to put a smile on her face cause she's alway frowning at me.
My hands are not small stop laughing
The Shadow Knows is a strong second to Doug, and then Angela.
Some really good ones, though. :)
Oh wait, HM to random.
What the *uck are you smiling about?
