Ta-Nehisi Coates

Ta-Nehisi Coates - Ta-Nehisi Coates is a senior editor for The Atlantic, where he writes about culture, politics, and social issues for TheAtlantic.com and the magazine. He is the author of the memoir The Beautiful Struggle. More

Born in 1975, the product of two beautiful parents. Raised in West Baltimore—not quite The Wire, but sometimes ill all the same. Studied at the Mecca for some years in the mid-’90s. Emerged with a purpose, if not a degree. Slowly migrated up the East Coast with a baby and my beloved, until I reached the shores of Harlem. Wrote some stuff along the way.

Again On Spoilers

By Ta-Nehisi Coates

Sep 28 2009, 12:51 PM ET Comment

Again, as I said a month ago, don't read this site if you're worried about spoilers. I'm not really interested in hedging a conversation for people who don't want spoilers, but still want to read a thread entitled Last Night's Mad Men. Don't want spoilers? Don't read the thread. There's no gun to anyone's head.

UPDATE: Mad Men posts will now take place below the break. I dislike the compromise--I just don't share the concern over spoilers. But I dislike the fight even more. I can't expect everyone to see things, as I do.
