"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

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."

Righting a wrong.
Aw man, I was looking forward to hanging out with the brothas, lifting weights and converting to Islam.
And wearing those pink panties.

I beg your pardon?

Drumpf's mouth really does look like a tiny asshole.
What does the gay frog have to say about it? Rimmit, rimmit.
Arpaio: Wow, is he for real?
Thank god a President with balls..........
The pardon's all well and good, but what about the lifetime bodyguards he promised me?

Thank g*d a President with balls on my chin.
Arpaio thought bubble: Donald, you complete me. It's not fair. Why can't we just get gay-married and share our love for each other (and hatred of Mexicans) with the world?
Lots of captions on point , whereby wouldn't it be cool creating a random drawing for the several really clever captions. Winner receives a FN pen or mug. Or how about an Amazon gift card :-)
Pilot@11:48 pm,in the lead. anotherbozo@12:06, and Dr @12:01 a.m. tied for second.
Thank god a President with balls.... shit, HRC has bigger balls by far. And she would know what to do with them in an emergency.
Drumpfuck already has a list of people to throw under the bus. He has already patted himself on the back for the initial response.
Damn, and I thought I was racist!
Anonymous at 4:50 PM is good one.

White racist fires his gun at counter protesters in Charlottesville while police stood around eating donuts or something.
I could have pardoned Julian Assange instead and then he would prove that Russia didn't hack the DNC. But then Mueller would release that golden shower video.
Let's just keep telling them the same thing over and over until they stop resisting.
Begging your pardon didn't mean to interrupt
Justice prevails........
