If anything captivated ladyblogland this past week, it was Ferguson. Our PoC news captured a few articles yesterday. I’ve rounded up a few, plus some other articles of interest.
Here’s a few highlights from ladyblogland’s coverage of Ferguson:
- Feminist Wire on Black Lives Matter.
- Brittney Cooper on the rule of law.
- Why are we not surprised?
- Roxane Gay, thoughtful as always.
- Rage on.
And here’s a few articles to distract you from Ferguson:
