    Totally off-topic, but wanted to let you know: December is National Buy a Book by a Black Author and Give it to Somebody Not Black Month. Check it out: http://welcomewhitefolks.blogspot.com/

    Introducing my new blog: White Readers Meet Black Authors, the official invitation for EVERYBODY to check out the African American section of the bookstore. Every Tuesday I’ll review/introduce a black author or comment on an issue. First up is starting a movement in which we all give a book by a black author to somebody who’s not black for the holiday season.
