I missed Joy Jones' Washington Post Magazine essay last week, but Albert Mohler's "Marriage is for White People" Crosswalk post sent me back to it.
Also: Peter Finney Jr.'s Catholic News Service article "Citing sacrilege, New Orleans archbishop closes historic black church;" Ben Bush's San Francisco Bay Guardian Lit-section interview "Laugh Lines" with can't-recommend-him-highly-enough novelist Paul Beatty; Kamika Dunlap's Tri-Valley Herald article "New Orleans' black funeral tradition dying out;" and, in other news, Larry Copeland's USA Today article "Blacks losing ground financially, study finds" (referencing the National Urban League's new study "The State of Black America 2006: The Opportunity Compact") and Ryan Lee and Dyana Bagby's Southern Voice article "Gay Atlanta in black and white," the first of a three-part series.
(Late adds: Stephen Cole's CBC article "The Skin Game: Why can’t Denzel Washington score with white women on screen?" with a tip o' the hat to longtime ally, blogger and newly Canadian correspondent Cecily, and Rinku Sen's ColorLines article "Black Men, Asian Women")
