		<description><![CDATA[On tonight&#8217;s episode of &#8220;The Simpsons,&#8221; Lisa Simpson explores her family&#8217;s historical connection to slavery and presents the results at school for Black History Month. This was fascinating for me to watch, as my own family&#8217;s powerful connection to slavery has taken up much of my time and energy over the last decade. Being a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, in a speech recognizing Black History Month, has told employees at the Justice Department that the U.S. is &#8220;a nation of cowards&#8221; when it comes to race relations. Holder, the first black attorney general in the nation&#8217;s history, explained that &#8220;this nation has still not come to grips with its [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Monday, I gave a series of four lectures on slavery and race in New Bedford and Fall River, Mass. Local newspaper stories about the talks have appeared in the Fall River Herald News (&#8220;Descendant of slave trader talks at BCC&#8220;) and in the New Bedford Standard-Times (&#8220;19th century tycoon’s descendants tell of North’s role [...]]]></description>
