week. Come one, come all! Get the series pass!

Female, Muslim, Mutant: A Critique of Muslim Women in Comic Books, Part 1 of 2 by Racialicous guest contributor, Jehanzeb Dar, was a really interesting read. Check it out!

This pains me to write, because I adore David Byrne. The man is incredibly inspiring, always active, never resting on his laurels, a great social critic and just plain rockin' (his music made up a big chunk of my 'growing-up' soundtrack). So I was pretty bummed by one of the bike racks he recently created for the New York City (see the full article on The New York Times site). Each rack is in a different shape that relates to the location (for example, a dollar sign on Wall Street). It's a great way to add a little glamor to cycling, which is, of course a great way to use less gasoline, which is a great way to save the planet etc.
