Goodbye Keith

December 31, 2007 by Marc Lamont Hill

For those that don’t know, activist and blogger Keith Boykin has decided to discontinue his daily blog.
After years of holding down one of the best sites on the web, Keith has decided to devote more time to writing books and maintaining his considerable activist presence. While I understand his decision (after all, daily blogging can be a major pain in the ass), I’m still going to miss his brilliant and unique voice.

GOOD LUCK KEITH!!!
