Modern Analgesic: January 2008
http://modernanalgesic.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
A delightful pastiche of the banal and the absurd. Wednesday, January 23, 2008. But there's an element of this all that bothers me, I'm afraid (beyond the salacious nature of the gossip already floating around). Before I get to that, though, I feel I should preface this with this statement: I respect Heath Ledger as an artist. I've always enjoyed his performances, even when it was in dreck like. His turn as Ennis Del Mar in. How is it any less a loss to that person's family and friends? But as much as I ...

This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Tuesday, March 31, 2009. The Color of Beauty. A few of my friends have had to endure rants and ramblings about the intersection of race and perceptions of beauty and I'm sure they think I'm crazy. But every so often a study or report comes out about black girls and their perceptions of themselves and how society perceives them. I am always saddened by the results. Every few years someone has tried to replicate this study.

This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Wednesday, June 17, 2009. Melissa Harris-Lacewell at the Nation recently blogged about President Obama and Black fatherhood. I found the piece interesting and provocative, but I found most of the comments left by readers to be disgusting. In this country, we punish children because of their life circumstances. We close doors, rather than open them. More fathers should step up to the plate, but let's ensure until th...The F...

This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Wednesday, July 1, 2009. A change is gonna come (to this blog). I should apologize for being inconsistent. It's been hard for me to keep up and part of the reason is because I never really had a theme for the blog. It was supposed to be a hybrid of a personal blog with a number of general rants about politics, the 'isms and current events. Although there isn't much activity in the comments sections (several people have com...

This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Sometimes I'm really glad I don't have any kids, because there are so many things I could not explain to them. The latest of these things is the new and "improved" Dora the Explorer, who has lost a few pounds, grown a few inches and accessorized! But I guess I was wrong. Sunday, March 15, 2009. The Sigificance of Role Modeling. A friend of mine brought this informal survey of Boston teenagers.

This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Thursday, April 23, 2009. Jessica Valenti, who has written three books on modern feminism is promoting her new book The Purity Myth. She stopped by the Today Show. This morning and it was a very, very sad display of feeding the message on the part of Kathy Lee and Lakita Garth (who wrote a book promoting abstinence). Sunday, April 19, 2009. I promise to return to the real world again soon. We have an obligation to each oth...

This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Thursday, July 16, 2009. Tired of the talking heads. OKI get it. Perhaps people are uncomfortable because there are some nonwhites in high ranking places. I understand that there are a great many people who want to protect their "way of life," but doesn't it ever just get old? Oh That's right. Because they are the all mighty, wise, white men. I don't have anything against white men. But I think that if we're going to t...

This is My Letter to the World: Faith, not religion, defines us
http://lettertotheworldagl.blogspot.com/2009/06/faith-not-religion-defines-us.html
This is My Letter to the World. Follow me on twitter: http:/ twitter.com/andreagl. Saturday, June 6, 2009. Faith, not religion, defines us. When I was in college, I was constantly defending my faith. I encountered many, many people who could not respect that I am a Christian and I think I should thank some of them. In defending Christianity, I learned more about faith than any bible study class could have taught me. June 19, 2009 at 11:00 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
