Shout Outs: The Whitewashing (and Blackfacing) of New York
30 March 06
It’s been “things that make you go hmmm…” week here at ethnorotica:
- White people may be well on their way to becoming a minority in New York, but you’d never know it from the unending avalanche of fluff trend pieces that pass for journalism these days. [New York Magazine]
- Sam Sugar tears the alt-porn world a new asshole and levels a racism charge against Joanna Angel. Considering what happened last time someone criticized Angel, I’m looking forward to a shitstorm any moment now. [SugarBank]
- It seems a certain notorious partygoer was well ahead of the curve. Blackface isn’t offensive anymore—it’s, er, the new black. [New York Times]
- And according to Laura, misogyny is the new homoeroticism. [Laura the Tooth]
