Since the race-baiting and fearmongering from the McCain campaign have intensified in recent weeks, we have escalated our campaign to end the politics of hate. This week on Meet the Bloggers, we will discuss race in the presidential race with special guest Rinku Sen, executive director of Applied Research Center and author of the recently released book, The Accidental American: Immigration and Citizenship in the Age of Globalization.
Joining Sen will be bloggers Adia Harvey Wingfield (Racism Review), Joshua Busch (Double Take 08), and Liliana Segura (AlterNet). All three have written extensively about this topic, as you can see from the material below. Check out their articles, and join them in the live blog discussion Friday at 1pm ET/10 am PT at Meet the Bloggers.

Great work here and I want to make a donation in support of it, but I only do so via snail mail. So, got an address for that, please? Thanks.
michael moore is lucky that he nevers comes to the Grove City, Ohio area, as a veteran I would
have to hit him so hard that “if” any female was hard up enough to have a kid by him, any future grandkids would feel it. he is a worthless piece of fat nothing. fact is, I would do the same to kennedy ( the wrong brothers were shot ), and other dumacrats, including the speaker of house from “fag land” city, usa.
OOOoo John, so much hate in your old body. It’s really taken a toll on your mind and (if there is still one left) your heart. Luckily most people think things through intelligently before reacting or we’d have a real mess on our hands with hot-headed ingorant people, like you. Do you have any natural teeth left?
John, you animal, you must be a plant. This episode is all about YOU, bubba. Cheers!
I’m shocked there are so many ignorant people among your bloggers.
John,… Dude….??
Get your head out of where the sun don’t shine, and get a little self education going on. What grade did you finish up with… 3rd?
BK you said JOHN finshed in 3rd grade thats an insult too 3rd graders. he,s an uneducated red neck so lets get it right he,s a fucking facist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. PEACE.
John represents many Americans. But for the first time in my adult life I’m proud of the American people. There are MANY (unlike John) who have taken their heads out of where the sun doesn’t shin, and are using their minds. I guess it has taken pain to wake them up. I know I’m hurting. Stay positive everybody. We can change by speaking out with truth and hope for us ALL. Vote OBAMA!
You all should do a show on T Boone Pickens plan to wean the USA off of 30% of its foreign oil addiction.
