Today at The Niggerati Network
Calvin Henry is the President of the Oregon Assembly for Black Affairs. I've known him for a while; we have different delivery styles but if I were political rather than personal in my approach to Black folks I sound similar to him.
The other day he let me check out a few articles he's working and let me post one. Interestingly enough I played editor for a minute…tightened this phrase and that one, and he said I changed the meaning of what he wrote entirely. Looking back, he was right. Locally it was all the same, but I changed the flow of it
Being an editor is harder than it looks.
