No new episode this week
Sorry everyone, but I’m experiencing some major technical difficulties. There’s something wrong with my home phone line, which means that I have no internet access at all at home, where all my podcasting stuff is set up. I’m hoping to solve this issue this week, will keep you all posted. In the meantime, please check out New Demographic’s blogs for new content:

ATR 72 – Body Image and Race – 06/19/2007 – Submit an Audio Comment: 206-203-3983
Carmen and Latoya discuss body image for women and how it correlates to race. This episode features the song “Feel The Change†by Baba & Yako, courtesy of Spectre Entertainment Group.
Overly opinionated and a prime candidate for MAA (Media Addicts Anonymous), freelance writer and blogger Latoya Peterson lives, learns, loves, and blogs – and then wakes up each morning to do it all over again. She currently contributes to online gaming magazine Cerise, and contributes weekly posts to Racialicious.com. She is also the head of content development at www.entersoundbooth.com, and blogs about hip-hop culture as PlentyProphylactics. Latoya also maintains two blogs of her own housed through her website, www.alteregomaniacs.com. Skilled in interviewing, creative non-fiction, and editorial content, Latoya Peterson spends her time researching trends and obscure connections between topics. Current projects include Messaging in the Media (an analysis of gender messaging through magazines), a project that analyzes the global influence of hip-hop culture, and a short project on trends in manga.
