"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."

"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."

Lady in Grace Jones voice “try some of this daaahling, this is the ess-sance of sex”!
Donald the First: You know, I love how Twitter allows me to circumvent the filter of the establishment media, but... I really do think social media might be becoming the biggest driving force for destruction of social cohesion, because it allows people to see what others really think and shatters illusions about human nature that allowed civilization to develop.
Rudolph of Queens: We don’t live in societies anymore, we live in markets, little ties us together besides economic transactionalism, it's been that way for a while but what’s new is we can go online and easily learn that most people are like Yisheng - selfish, amoral and gross. We have no reason to like each other anymore
Donald the First: Religion and tribalism used to counteract man’s revulsion at the fallen nature of his fellow man. But we’ve forsaken God and family and replaced them with narcissism, relativism and diversity, so we’re left with neoliberal platitudes barely disguising a black hole of cynicism and greed.
Rudolph of Queens: Most people sit in ideological echo-chambers though and only see the contextless "bad" stuff that gets shoved in their faces. They never see any in-depth explanation for other peoples views and end up creating new delusions/illusions about themselves and their enemies.
Donald the First: This is the ground we tread, the sea we swim in, the air we breathe.
Rudolph of Queens: Word to your mother.
Donald the First: It is in my mother's memory that I shall take this fight to the end.
"Not with those tiny little hands you don't..."

Happy Birthday Grace!
I feel pretty:
Oh, so pretty;
I feel pretty, and witty and gay.
And I pity any girl who isn’t me today!
At last, Rudy admits that he only offered his services as a defense attorney (a job he clearly sucks at, given his tendency in interviews to blurt out admissions of his client’s guilt) only so he could get close enough to ask Donald for assistance in pursuing his lifelong dream: competing in the Miss Universe pageant!
Donald explores alternatives to his usual bizarro combover hairstyle. His friend Rudy helpfully suggests he try out the “Marilyn Monroe look.”

We're all just biding our time until the next micro dick white boy shoots up a school.
Butt Trumpet Jr. and Eric Butt Trumpet probably cry themselves to sleep every night over how tiny their dicks are. They curse their father for this inheritance.
@Doug, I got a LOT of Grace tributes on my timeline today!😉
