The audacity of blog recommendations · by Rafi Kam

I’ve been a big fan of these two blogs this year. One is fairly new and one is just new to me. Both offer distinct voices, quality writing, astute political and cultural commentary plus guilt-free diversions….

And edutainment of the highest degree.

The Black Snob is the one that has been around for a while and is run by Danielle Belton, a professional writer and dedicated Michelle Obama fashion chronicler. The newer one is We Are Respectable Negroes where “three respectable negroes” (see original 40 Acres and a Mule decry to catch the reference) get deep or sometimes not so much. But the ride is good either way.

It’s been rewarding following both of these sites during the campaign and I suspect the same will be true for their coverage of the Obama presidency.

  1. We Are Respectable Negroes has quickly become one of my favorite reads.
