Great Articles

I frequent the BBC's news site along with occasional trips to The New York Times' site and The Washington Post's site. Lately, these visits have paid off. Here's a few articles that are well worth your time.

Showing the Way - This is an autobiographical piece by Wil Haygood, a writer for The Post, regarding his efforts to rescue his great nephew from his cursed family history. Had I not been sitting in a class of 150 students, I would have cried multiple times.

Being a Black Man - This is a series The Post is running on being a black man in society. There's some interesting articles and some other media stuff worth checking out. I haven't gotten to explore it as much as I'd like, but what I've seen was worthwhile.

Going to Church by Staying at Home - This one is also from The Post. It's a nice piece on the house church movement.

2008 Election - I realize this is an article on the 2008 US Presidential election written for the BBC, but it's interesting and offers a nice analysis of some of the possible candidates.

Israel and the Palestinians - This BBC page takes an in depth look at the history and current situation between Israel and Palestine. It's a nice resource.

Hope you all enjoy these as much as I did. And for the record, I'm pulling for Richardson, Clark, or McCain for President.

Good day.

Glad you didn't take my advice on not blogging, although I could still whoop for the other stuff. Thanks for the great reading material. It'll keep me from doing my work all day! Have fun out in the boonies this week. I'm praying for you brother.
