The BfP/”X” Files: An Update
Blogging While Black/Latin@, Fighting The Good Fight, Love Me, I'm A Liberal...NOT!!! April 13th, 2008
Well….it’s early Sunday morning, and Brownfemipower’s blog is now officially passed (Goddess’ speed and much love, mujer)….but I do bring good news.
I had seen that mosts of the posts throughout the blogosphere is referencing my reposting of the excerpts of BfP’s final essay documenting her reaction to Amanda/”X” and her perfidity (is that the correct word???). I was so sorry that I could not have captured a screen shot of either the entire blog entry there or the previous one where she gives the context of her WAM! speech.
However….what I can’t do, Google can, through their Cache feature….and I just so happened to find the cached version of BfP’s final post in its entirity. Just click on the following link to read it:
Brownfemipower (La Chola/Women of Color Blog): Intellectual Integrity (via Google Cache)
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a cache of the blog post with BfP’s original speech; that must have not been cached in time.
Also; here’s a mass linkage to the many comments now running on the entire controversy; both pro and con:
Xicano Power
Natalia Antonova
Belledame
Ren Ev
Daisy’s Dead Air
Kevin Andre Elliot
Plain(s)feminist
High on Rebellion
Sudy (here, here, and here)
Blackamazon
Sylvia/M (here and ESPECIALLY HERE)
Feministe (which also includes a long comments thread where Amanda attempts to defend herself, and brings some of her allies)
In fairness, I should include as well:
Hugo Schwyzer (who strongly defends Amanda)
Also, the usual drive-by shots at feminism and “victimization” from Soulhuntre. (Quick memo: Butt out of what you know not a damn thing about, fool.)
Any other blogs heavy on the current issue that you find, just let me know.
