Don's Profile

This blog is ultimately a black man�s observations of progress within modern society and culture at large and its supposed unintended impacts, on equity. Please pardon the lack of articulation...time constraints and general pissedoffness does that to you.. There is a particular bent towards the democracy-technology nexus. Its a more a case of what is easiest to access, what interests me, and what's partially related to what I do... On the writing front...life is Hectic. Building and sustaining a fast growing Nu Media Start Up, is a tough and gruelling gig at the best of times...so once a month is the best I can offer at this stage...however.. If you have some thoughts and they align philosophically with mine, Please ...by all means shoot it thru and lets get the word out there...
