i'm a blogher
Well, I spoke and blogher listened.
Looks like I've gotten myself on yet another panel:
In A Room of Your Own, I'll have to figure out how best to discuss what's been added to the schedule as:
Feminist hip-hop bloggers?
Negotiating a space dominated by men…much like the music.
If in fact I end up leading this panel, I'll need to identify more women to add to the discussion.
Right now, based on who and what I know about, I'm calling to my aid:
Jalylah Burrell
Tiffany B. Brown
Julianne Shepherd
Rachel Ramist
Miranda Jane
Sherella Gibbs
Safire
honeysoul (and i'm sorry i don't know your government name)
So now I have to put a shout out to these ladies and proposition them with presenting on this session, or even just soliciting ideas from them. But if you know of someone I should speak with, let me know. Unfortunately, I know, and intereact, with a much higher percentage of men on the web than I do women.

Although I've been "cheating" on my blog lately [just posting events and photos], I'm in. It's finals and b-girl be is approaching but full hip-hop feminist blog mode will be in effect soon. Just let me know when/where and I'll be there.

Peace Lynne. Well, first of all, I'm most likely moving back to California after B-Girl Be, and if you need me as a panelist, I can be there!
Also here's a great blog I follow which should most def be added to the list
Carla Murphy

I'll try to come up with some discussion points for the panel...
P.S. the link to Rachel's blog in this post doesn't work, she's at

Thanks MJ - been slipping on my links lately. I used to check em all the time to make sure they worked and would check my code again and again - not a lot of time for that lately.
Glad you and Rachel came up in the spot and represented. I'll hit you both up so we can talk more about this.
(And please forgive me whomever was trackback pinged 10 million times from this post. My MT seems to send out the same pings very time I update a post. And I don't have any control over it, b/c it's doing it automatically. Maybe I have to check my settings or something.)
