Back to "What Does It Mean To Be A Black Blogger?" This set is going to wind up in the Best Of box, I think.
Cobb speaks up in "The Mystery of the Black Blogger." Definitely worth a read, and you must take in the comments as well. If you're a new blogger that's tryingto build relationships, Dean Esmay's comment is worth saving.
Glenn at "Hi. I'm Black!" hasn't spoken directly on the topic but has a post on one of his college professors that, from the phrasing, I'm guessing was inspired by this subject.
There's a couple of folks I'd REALLY like to hear from on the topic, some Black bloggers and Black folks with blogs. In no particular order:
- Kamau at The Black Hand Side
- J. (and Mac Diva!) at Silver Rights and Mac-a-ro-nies
- Oliver Willis at (where else?) Oliver Wills: Like Kryptonite to Stupid
- Laura at Interesting Monstah
- George at AllAboutGeorge and Negrophile
- Michael of Trader Mike Move The Crowd
- Jesse of Pandagon
- Steve Gilliard of Steve Gilliard's News Blog
By way of explaining the list, these would be people who have blogs of both types or people who I've not dealt with enough to have an idea on how they might answer. I hope folks not listed don't feel put off.
If these good folks see the link and decide to answer, the ideal way to respond would be a post on their own blog with a trackback ping (non-trackback enabled blogs—you poor, benighted sould—can go here) or link to this post.
