We’re enjoying lovely spring weather this weekend in New York but there still aren’t enough interesting things happening in my life to fill a blog entry. Other bloggers have posted noteworthy items however, so I direct you to them.
Andres at Blabbeando attended Saturday’s march in Brooklyn to keep up public awareness about the still unsolved murder of Rashawn Brazell, on what would have been his 21st birthday.
Earl at Prometheus 6 always has a wealth of news and information. He tips us to two items on immigration, one warning Black people about the real impact of anti-immigration legislation, the second provides an eye-opening assessment of the economic effects.
Professor Kim is another great news source I like to read. She’s been covering the Duke lacrosse alleged rape incident. She’s got an interview with Duke professor Mark Anthony Neal who shares his thoughts on masculinity and sexual violence.
Scottie at AfroerotiK, usually writes about sexuality and eroticism, but instead has a few pointed comments to make about use of the “N” word in the Black community.
Few bloggers stay on top of current events like Rod, and he’s got news of a stage production down in DC, written by a local playwright, addressing the DL phenomenon from a different perspective. Folks in the nation’s capital are advised to check it out.
Finally, James has made it back to the Bay Area after his vacation in New York. In addition to being a jazz fan, he’s a brilliant photographer and has posted shots from his trip to his Flickr account. He can make the most ordinary subject look like a work of art.
Happy Easter everyone.
