One particular blog that I have been reading is one called
http://racismschool.tumblr.com. This blog is about a female who is bi-racial and gives her own account of how we define racism. She tells of her own encounters and her own experiences with being bi-racial in America. One of the the best parts about this blog is its section Racism 201: Art Appreciation. Here I found great art by black artists who through art demonstrate their own experience in America. A lot of the artwork is very colorful and thought provoking. I have to say that it is amazing to see how most African Americans experience the same things, but artistically the project these situations in totally different ways. Here are some of the artworks displayed on the Website:
