Favorite Site: Ambra Nykol
This is another excellent blog. The author: Ambra Nykol. This may sound a little funny, but in her writing, she reminds me a lot of a ballet dancer with boxing gloves. Right when you are enjoying her light-hearted way of addressing the issues of the day, BOOM! You get hit with some truth (and she does not hold back any punches). Dan Leroy of National Review Online said it best by characterizing her as “…playful philosophizing”. Not only has her site been featured with NRO, but she also has a column with seaspot.com (here is a link to her latest article). If you want to read about some of the REAL issues that have an impact in society with a very unique and refreshing perspective, check her out!
PS. She is the only black person in the Seattle area, so please keep her in your prayers (hahahahahahaha)!
I think we need to put out an APB on Ambra!! And with all the under-covered stories about missing black women, I am only half joking. Tomorrow (Thursday, 9/22) will mark two weeks since Ambra has blogged! And I am concerned. I mean, normally she lets her faithful “viewers” know when she taking some time away from her keyboard, or attending a BlogHer event, or something. But unless I missed it, this time she just went “Poof!!”
And by the way, I have a frat brother in Seattle, so Ambra’s not exactly the only black person up there. Granted, culturally and tonally my frat brother has gone over to–I guess I can’t exactly call it the “dark” side, now can I–the other side…but, pigment-ally speaking, he’s still one of us.
Holla!!!
