A discussion of the racism one finds in the coverage of the hurricane that hit New Orleans. (The article also touches on another aspect of the hurricane, namely that it seems the evacuation of the city was so poorly planned.)

This is a post from my link log: If you click the title of this post you will be taken the web page I am discussing.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
