Blogging Hurts
Ain’t it annoying that sometimes what we love the most causes us the most discomfort? So two of the things I love the most are blogging and lifting really heavy weights in the gym. *sigh* Apparently, this combination has caused deep tendinitis ...
A Note about ‘Statistic’
I have been bugging Andrew Padula to write the post that follows since he told me about his disturbing encounter on the DC metro last year. He was extremely hesitant to do so, but finally put it together in the wake of the Chicago beating-murder of t...
New Posts Coming…thanks to Celebrex
I’ve been sidelined by a nasty flare-up in a year old neck injury. It’s triggered extreme pain in my right hand, wrist and forearm. The good news is that I am waiting for the Celebrex to kick in and I’ve purchased a trackball mouse ...

All About Race Back for Good
Since AAR launched in March 2007, a whole lot has changed about the way we discuss racial issues in America. Two and a half years ago, the notion of a black president was most realistically relegated to Hollywood imaginings and the white knuckle real...
New posts coming today!
Good morning all! Just got back from Chicago and the Blogging While Brown conference. Rushing out to take my car in for repairs and after that all writing all day. More this afternoon. How was YOUR weekend? And a special shout out to fathers who love...
What’s up…
I realize that All About Race posting has been super light for the past little while. I am in the process of putting together my next public service initiative. As some of you may recall, I’ve spent the past few years devoting much of my time t...
Meanwhile, over at AOL BlackSpin
I apologize for the slow posting this week. I’m working up a couple of goodies, including some more insight on that CBS poll that talked about blacks and whites feeling better about race relations. In our comments section, reader N-2-Me-I-C poi...

All About Race on the Radio!
I am so excited to talk with you about the next chapter for All About Race. I don’t know about you, but sometimes I get frustrated that those of us in our AAR community can’t just talk about some of the headlines or some of the stuff that...
All About Race - changes on the horizon
As you can see, I am taking the new theme Nezua has customized for us on a test drive. We’ll be working out the kinks over the next short while and moving between the old and new themes until all is running smoothly. But this preview is just a ...
Got links? - Mental Health Day 2
So my very wise blogamigo Eddie Griffin suggested that I take TWO mental health days. He’s right of course, I am almost feeling clear and inspired again. I pay close attention when my higher energies, like optimism, dip and lower level energies...

Today we kick off an experiment that I am very excited about! I know that those of you who comment on this site are the reason a sense of community exists here. Sometimes we agree and sometimes we don’t. We don’t have to agree. But those ...
How to Blog: Links and Resources
During my appearance on the Bloggers’ Panel at Tavis Smiley’s State of the Black Union on Saturday, I asked the audience to go home or to the library, get on the web and begin to become familiar with the internet. If the first steps are t...

Update
So 2009 continues to be the year of annoying health stuff. I had a minor surgical procedure on Monday. No big deal! All is well except I’m sore and a little distracted. I will start posting again tonight. Thanks for your patience!...
Update…
Hello. I was in back to back meetings yesterday and the same is on deck for today. As I’ve mentioned before, I am volunteering with a few other colleagues to establish a public, college preparatory boarding school here in Los Angeles. Our acade...
