For our entire first hour today, we'll continue talking about how we talk about race....inside and outside the political arena. Is it possible to really get down and dirty and HONESTLY talk about race? And what do we hope to accomplish and possibly resolve in those discussions? Our guests will be Dawn Turner Trice, a Chicago Tribune columnist and mediator of a blog called "Exploring Race," Gregory Rodriguez, a columnist for the Los Angeles Times and director of the California Fellows Program at the New America Foundation, and Kathy Kramer Walsh, an associate professor of political science at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. And as always we want to hear your story. Has talking about race helped you understand other people?

In our 2ND HR 2DAY...AFAIK and FWIW*... Okay, if you are the mother of a teen or tween and can understand what those symbols mean, our second hour is about you. Have you become an online mother...IMing your child and showing up on their Facebook page? You're not alone. In our second hour, we'll talk an online mom of 14 and 16 year olds, and the co-founders of Postcards from Yo Momma, a website that collects those lovely emails mothers send out when all she really wants is for you to call her!! At the end of the hour, a Harvard professor will tell us if there really is a difference between a bold-face lie and a mere exaggeration. It will probably be our best ender segment yet!
