The Liming House http://theliminghouse.org The Liming House is a small, nondescript apartment in South Trinidad. Once upon a time, it was a gathering place for an eclectic assortment of artists, musicians, writers, poets, great minds and future revolutionaries. theliminghouse.org is where those limers publish.

Introducing the Coloured Collective http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheLimingHouse/~3/eVflrB49lp8/ http://theliminghouse.org/2012/05/17/introducing-the-coloured-collective/#comments Thu, 17 May 2012 21:16:01 +0000 sinistra http://theliminghouse.org/?p=424 I’ve often used this blog to discuss issues of race, culture and identity.

So I’m delighted to introduce The Coloured Collective, a blog dedicated to issues of race, culture, identity, gender and sexuality – especially as faced by women of colour in a world of black and white.

I’m one of a rotating cast of contributors (and we’re always looking for new voices, so get in touch by leaving a comment or shouting us on Facebook if you’re interested. Or Twitter. Or Tumblr. As you do.)

And now back to our sporadic posting schedule.
