Racialicious
The Racialicious blog, covering the intersection of race and pop culture on the World Wide Web since 2004, is what del.icio.us would be if all the links focused on race and pop culture (hence the blog name). In fact, readers of the blog and users of del.icio.us can plug the "for:racialicious" tag in del.icio.us links to send Racialicious tips. This resource isn't specifically geared toward librarians, but all librarians - especially librarians that work with diverse populations - should consider reading Racialicious at least once a week in order to stay informed about current issues regarding race in pop culture and mass media. Explore the book reviews (Broken Arrow: Native Men's Writing, Art and Culture), the news links of the day ("Google Bans 'Latina' from Search Results"), and coverage of new music (Korean-American sisters from the group Misnomer(S) break down hip-hop stereotypes). Content is not limited to news in the United States, but any important news involving race throughout the world.
