Just some links to cool articles. School and Procrastination Go Together, Dontcha Know.

Here's an interesting article from "urban cartography" about the class and race biases in the evacuation "plan" for New Orleans. Here's a set of image+captions that notice racial bias in description of flood victims from Alternet's Evan Derkacz.
