4TH OF JULY FIREWORKS IN NY CITY | youtube.com SORRY WE RUINED HAIRCUTS BY HAVING BOTH HAIR AND CHILDREN AT THE SAME TIME | scarymommy.com An excellent response piece to Bee Shapiro's NY Times piece on "Mom Hair..."The idea that moms make things uncool just by liking them certainly isn’t new. When moms started wearing higher waisted jeans to cover up their postpartum tummies, those jeans suddenly became “mom jeans.” When moms realized how practical minivans are, suddenly those . . .

#TBT White privilege, and what we’re supposed to do about it
On Thursdays I post something from the archives. This is from July 2013. The case of Trayvon Martin’s death has sparked a national conversation around race. People seem to be polarized in their reactions to the recent verdict, and as such I’d love to avoid more conjecture on that in this post.
