week 9. i am darryl and i have a new dryer. i spent way too much money on it.

My question focuses, as always, on Blackness:

As we are now 55 years removed from Loving v. Virginia and new generations of multi-ethnic Blackfolk grow and develop in a post-Obama America, is "Blackness" an obsolete marker in the USA? What is "Black" now--old or new (and I don't mean Orange)?
