The rarity of the black Canadian blogger

I thought the intro to this article about the lack of black Canadian bloggers to be a little, uh, discordant, but then I visited the author's blog and changed my mind.

Her blog is dope.

But the article raises an interesting issue about this scarcity. Here's the question she poses:

When will Canada have a website comparable to the popular American site, Negrophile.com, which lists all American black bloggers?

I'd answer, it can start with just one person. I think that's the beauty of blogging, the viralness (is that word?) of it.

Shout-out to the dopest black canadian literary blogger. You should have been in that article!
