Want to talk about Race? Welcome to the Afrosphere
Since race is in the headlines AGAIN and probably will be for the next eight years (yes eight!) I thought this was a good time to post my links to the Afrosphere.
Because of the craziness over the last couple of weeks, I am posting two different blogs that are dealing with racism and the recent controversies.

AverageBro link:

Definitely read the comments on his blog.

GrannyStandingfor Truth is a black grandmother with a sense of humor.

His "misidentified black person of the week" or whatever is always hilarious.

4. Yes - that's why I said "undercoverblackman", and not "averagebro"...
