Terrorist Fist Jab vs. Chest Bump: Fox News Shoots Itself In the Foot
To the left, we see Anna Kournikova and George H. W. Bush giving each other a gesture of mutual “greeting, departure, or respect,” known as “the pound”. Yet when Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama reproduce the same gesture, Fox News calls it a “terrorist fist jab” (see video after the jump). Fox also [...]

Speaking Truth To Power: The Canary In the Coalmine (Literally)
Fight the Culture of Hate! Vincent Navarro, formerly Jesse Jackson’s senior health advisor in the ’84 and ’88 Primaries, tells it like it is over at Counterpunch: HillaryCare Failed.

Showdown: Chauvinist Humor vs. Racist Rhetoric
There’s some need for discussion about this feminism thing. I mean, contrary to popular belief, feminists don’t necessarily hate all men – or love all women, and equally importantly, feminists have a sense of humor. I mean, as matsu’s blog at MediaGirl (hat tip for the image) points out, “Make a racist joke to a [...]

Double Your Consciousness, Double Your Fun? Ain't No Thang.
So I was browsing my own blogroll the other day (yeah, that’s the thing down to the left), and I stumbled across this really interesting piece on double consciousness at, you guessed it, Double Consciousness. You’ll have to read it for yourself. Most of my education about double consciousness comes from my very wise Black [...]

Missy Elliot & Work it, Or, I Need to Shave My Chocha so You'll Eat It Like a Vultcha
In her track “Work It,” Missy Elliot offers a wise approach to the objectification-heavy world of commercial hip hop: “I’m not a prostitute, but I can give you what you want.” The hit single “Work It” both employs the blatant objectification of women (with images, in the video, of women bending over in hootchie shorts [...]
