Stepping away from education for a moment, I’ve got a column up on Pajamas Media, Obama’s Black Box.

Good article…
Well-said, Joanne. A very interesting article.
Well-written (as always), but poorly reasoned, historically illiterate, and ethnocentric, like nearly everything else written by those who aren’t familiar with black churches.
Shades of the old Mercury column–I hope you can switch topics more often. I used to look forward to Mondays and Thursdays.
Pajama Media seems to have changed the URL format and broken all the links.
Worse, there is no obvious way to find posts no longer linked from the front page. You should complain.
