Ride Out Irene w/Afronerd Radio at 7pm-White Michael Vick Controversy, EX NBAer Accused of Murder; Paypal Founder Pays U NOT 2 Go to College & More!

Hopefully our east coast listeners will escape the wrath of Hurricane Irene unscathed. And what better way to "ride out" the hurricane (if the power is operational...no joke) than to listen to this Sunday's Afronerd featuring Captain Kirk live broadcast at 7pm eastern. The issues on the menu this week are as follows: author/culture critic, Toure lights up the blogosphere with a provocative ESPN article depicting Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, Michael Vick as White; ex NBA player, Javaris Crittenton is facing murder charges for the shooting of a young mother in the ATL; Paypal founder, Peter Thiel is not only funding the erection of island countries (with no conventional rules/laws) for the super wealthy but also spending money on young entrepreneurs encouraging them not go to college; a blog posting by journalist Janet Langhart Cohen deals with interracial dating and Black authenticity issues.....again and lastly, Is Facebook usage tantamount to a gateway drug?
