Alt Wire is a morning digest of links and information collected and explained by a different guest blogger every weekday. Today’s guest is Rinku Sen of ColorLines. We asked her for five links, and here’s what she gave us (check back for tomorrow’s guest, activist and artist Noah Scalin of Another Limited Rebellion):

Sepia Mutiny:

Where they they call their bloggers mutineers and cover South Asians and international politics.
Racialicious: A blog about race and pop culture with a feature about how to write about Muslims for real.
Jack and Jill Politics: I always need the “black bourgeoisie perspective on politics.” 
Of América: Writer Roberto Lovato’s visionary blog on Latino politics and culture. Right now, he’s in El Salvador. 
Kai Wright: A beautiful writer of “sex race health journalism.” Check out his book on queer teens of color, “Drifting Toward Love.” 
BIO: Rinku Sen is the President and Executive Director of the Applied Research Center (ARC) and Publisher of ColorLines magazine.
