linkspam: signal-boost edition

+ World first: via [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon, three good links regarding the BP oil disaster. (This visualization site is pretty damn chilling.) Also, I came across this list of organizations/resources about a month ago, but it could use more pimping.

+ [community profile] dark_agenda is kicking off the Racebending Revenge Ficathon! The challenge: Re-write one or more white characters in the fandom(s) of your choice as chromatic/non-white/PoC, in a story of at least 500 words, with some acknowledgment of how the racial difference would make a difference to the story being told.

+ [personal profile] oyceter could use some help with examples of the Revenge of the Colored People/Night of the Non-White trope!

+ [livejournal.com profile] fiction_theory has a good post about SF and ablism [DW version].
