You are a Dreamer Your combination of abstract thinking, appreciation of beauty, and cautiousness makes you a DREAMER. You often imagine how things could be better, and you have very specific visions of this different future. Beauty and style are important to you, and you have a discerning eye when it comes to how things look. Although you often think more broadly, you prefer comfort to

"A human being is a part of the whole, called by us, "Universe," a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free

Yes.. it's astrology.

"As I approach the source of the color red, the more I understand it." That's why he's so fond of red rocks, whose hue comes from iron, the

Just a quick YAY post. Well, it started out with me getting rather freaked with my stupid "stalker". No, I realize he's not really a stalker. However, he did decide to start harassing me personally on his little show, then followed me over to my message board to further cause me grief. Which really, I never should have even let him in, in the first place. But as my dear friend Dave will tell

This seemed like a good post to end Blogging Against Racism Week on. As much as I enjoy the education I receive about race from wonderful, insightful, honest bloggers such as Field Negro and Free Slave, I feel I can connect more with Angry Black Woman's blog and view. Maybe it's the fact we're both women? I have no clue. Regardless, she is very good at making me see things I totally never

From Democracy Now last Thursday: Three weeks from today, a 30-year-old African American man on death row in Texas is scheduled to be executed. Kenneth Foster was sentenced to death ten years ago for the murder of Michael LaHood, a white man. The trial judge, the prosecutor, and the jury that sentenced him to die admit he never killed anyone. Foster is scheduled to be executed under a

A good friend and ally in the fight against racism recently posted this guide on privilege on the TS message board- and I want to share some of the points here for today's (almost too late!) installment for IBARW. It all starts with one simple self-realization: you are privileged. Chances are, your reading that has made you feel defensive. While it’s a perfectly natural, and common, reaction,

Racism, White Anxiety and the Projection of Personal Inadequacy By Tim Wise The electronic messages I receive from overt racists would be hilarious were they not so sad, so indicative of an inability to do basic research, interpret data once discovered and then fashion an intelligible argument. That the American educational system is failing may be a matter for open debate, but on this score--

From a post I made on the Tap back in July: Seriously. One? Only one? Wasn't worth shuffling the schedule around for? Oh dear GOP, even FAKING caring about this debate would have shown a little more about you, than what this photo gives away.

Dear Dani, A few weeks ago, we launched a campaign to bring visibility to the case of the Jena 6--six young black men in Jena, LA set to face more than 20 years in prison for their alleged role in a schoolyard fight. We're already making a difference, but we could still really use your help. Last Tuesday, over 300 people from across the country descended on Jena: we rallied in front of the

It is part of the moral tragedy with which we are dealing that words like "democracy," "freedom," "rights," "justice," which have so often inspired heroism and have led men to give their lives for things which make life worthwhile, can also become a trap, the means of destroying the very things men desire to uphold. Sir Norman Angell (1874 - 1967), 1956. No one is more dangerous than one who

Something I wrote back in April, after reading an amazing book: I've had many mini-ephiphanies over the past couple of months for me on the subject of race relations. I was introduced to author and anti-racism activist Tim Wise through a member of the TS message board, and friend, Bruce. I recently read Wise's book, "White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son", and was

Recently a podcast I used to take such pride in being a part of, wrote about how "dull" links are. I was instantly tweaked, for a couple of reasons. One, on the personal level. To see a show I gave so much to pretty much slam my hard work by calling what I was doing "dull"- well, grrr. But I gave it up to the age and experience (as she is still learning this podcasting etiquette thing, as

Yes, if you are coming over from the Myspace blog, you know I'm dusting off the blog here to use again. For those just stopping in, well, it was time. And Blogger had some good upgrades that made it worth my while. :-) Have a million things to talk about, but will do that tomorrow. Erm, later today.

Well, seems I've got too much bloggage. It was bound to happen, but I've found that I really love the format of the blog over on Myspace. So, that is where I will forward you to, in case the two people who read still would like to keep tabs on me. http://blog.myspace.com/theaudioaddicts Consolidation. It's a good thing. :-)
