"So many of us are struggling to make it day by day."

That's a quote from Michael Slaughter in Jenny Jarvie's Los Angeles Times article "Voice of Atlanta's Black Gays Is Emerging" (with more context in Eric Ervin's Southern Voice article "Activist calls Pride’s race panel a ‘ruse’").

Also: Joanne Hou's UCLA Daily Bruin article "Ethnic studies maintains its appeal"; Jeff Gammage's Philadelphia Inquirer article "For adoptees, racial divide still wide: Families may be colorblind, but the world is not. It's a painful lesson for many"; and Susan Raymond's onPhilanthropy post "Minority Philanthropy: The Future Has Arrived"

Riding the late freight means getting to Ofelia Casillas' Chicago Tribune article "The underground ball: Hundreds of gay black men in Chicago join in a world that is part fashion show, part dance-off and part family gathering" second-hand via the Fort Wayne News-Sentinel
