Jack & Jill Went Up A Hill - Politics From A Bougie Perspective

There is a new venue for Black political commentary on the scene. It's Jack & Jill Politics. With blog entries dating back to August 2006, The website byline, "A Black Bourgeoisie Perspective On U.S. Politics", is a take on the national social and service organization Jack & Jill of America, Inc. created by African Americans in 1938. This online political commentary blog, provides a venue for serious discussion on the issues that affect the Black community.

I find this site fascinating and it provides links to several different blogs created and managed by African American writers and journalists. Once again, blogging is providing the opportunity to report stories about the black community from a black perspective, something that seems to be missing in mainstream media.
