I’ve decided to move all of the non-blog resources to this page. Please feel free to suggest any additions to the list! (links are presented in no particular order.)
NEW! Racism 101
A wealth of information about racial disparities in rates of incarceration

and for longer lengths of time, than white folks do)

I heart Jonathan Kozol . . .

Lorraine, judging by your site you seem pretty right on. I hope I didn’t seem to hard on you at Slice. I applaud your efforts at ending racism. I live in a mixed race neighborhood (and have since I was 12; now I’m 54). I am a choir director in a heavily mixed race school system. My students include Mexican, Black, Chinese, Hmong, Vietnamese, Armenian, Yemenese, Pakistani, Indian (from India) and about 10% White. I love each one and have great relationships with them. I believe racism exists because of sin – on both sides. This sin isn’t just between black and white but between any two groups of people you’d like to pick. It has existed since the Tower of Babel and is a direct result of man believing he is God. I know I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know so I’ll stop. Keep up the good work.
