Sadness, the Antisquee

One of my favorite blogs, Angry Black Cat, is down right now for some reason or another. I hope it comes back soon because are always insightful posts on that site and I think the podcast is wonderful. One of the points is that it's written by a black woman married to a white man. For some of you reading, that may not seem like such a big deal and for others of you reading, it seems like a huge deal. The point of its existence is that it's just about love. Period. That's the main point. People don't understand that if you keep an open mind, or even if you're not keeping an open mind, you can fall in love with anyone. It's amazing how your mind can ignore conscious choices that you make.

One of the reasons in particular that I like ABC's and JeffG's blog is that they don't spend time talking about the condition of the black man and how he as a collective group has wronged the black woman. Instead of talking about what's not there, they talk about what they have and about how falling in love was something welcome and unexpected. Seeing and listening to their experiences and viewpoints as well as the viewpoints of others expands my thinking. If they ever read this, I would just like to say thanks for sharing.
