We’re thrilled to announce that Jamilah King’s officially joined the ColorLines team. You may recognize Jamilah King’s name from the many posts that we cross-posted here from WireTap magazine, where Jamilah served as their associate editor for several years. She’s also written for ColorLines Magazine, where she’s looked at "San Francisco’s Black Exodus", and reviewed "Book of Rhymes" and "American Muslim Women: Negotiating Race, Class and Gender within the Ummah." She has also written for RaceWire on love and the recession and Jay-Z’s unique role as a sports team owner, and has wasted no time getting settled in today. She’ll be working with ColorLines as we transition into an exciting 2010 with lots of new content and exciting changes. Please join us in welcoming Jamilah to the ColorLines family!
