SIVACRACY.NET: African American Visibility In Popular Culture

Over at Blackprof.com, Paul Butler noted:

Three of the top five movies feature predominately African-American casts. Three of the top five songs are by black artists (and the remaining two artists- Fergie and Nelly Furtado - would be nowhere without African-American producers). Barack Obama has the best selling hardcover non-fiction book in the country. Three of the top ten paperback non-fiction best sellers are by blacks (and a fourth- the Freedom Writers Diary - is an anthology that prominently features African-American writers). And two African-American coaches are going to the Big Dance.

You know, I see them everywhere too, on the streets, at the mall, in offices. It's a great thing how they have moved into the mainstream.
