I read your stuff all the time. This isn't on topic, but I didn't know how to reach you. There's a piece in Slate today (http://www.slate.com/id/2192831/) about a man who was represented by a racist attorney and is scheduled for execution tomorrow, despite the appeal of the Georgia Supreme Court Justice who voted originally for his execution. I blogged about it here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/6/3/215118/2754/98/528736
but I (rightly, I'm not much of a blogger) get no hits compared to you. Would you take a look at the Slate story and see if it's worth you writing something?
Sorry to jump in on your Obama celebration thread. Hope you can delete this comment without too much trouble. Much appreciated.
Here's a piece no one cared about. Meh, whatever, probably the most enjoyable article I did during my stint at TIME. Premiered a month before I got laid-off. The nail in the coffin? Ya think?
Here's me going after Al. I didn't so much have a problem with him, as I had a problem with media acting like this dude was the go-to guy for everything black.
This was my first real story at time. I was writing for the Business section, a real change of direction for me. At any rate, it's about Wal-Mart's attempts to colonize the inner-city. As much as I enjoyed this piece, I mostly enjoyed going out to Chicago, which is a beautiful, beautiful city.
This a piece I did about the cops just outside our nation capitol, in Prince George's County, a few years back. I wanted to offer a counter to the dumb, conventional wisdom that if you paint your police force black, you could eradicate police brutality. In fact, Prince George's--one of the richest, blackest counties in the country--also had one of the most brutal police force's in the country.
