La Shawn Barber: Bio

La Shawn Barber, formerly of Washington, D.C., is a Southern California-based freelance writer, blogger, and blog consultant.

Her features, essays, and reviews have appeared in the Washington Examiner, Washington Post, Washington Times, The National Jurist, Christian Research Journal, Christianity Today, Today's Christian Woman, Beliefnet.com, Townhall.com, National Review Online, BlogCritics.org, and other publications.

La Shawn has appeared on CNN's "Reliable Sources," the BBC, MSNBC, C-SPAN, and several national talk radio programs, including National Public Radio, Michael Savage's "The Savage Nation," Bill O'Reilly's "The Radio Factor," and "The Hugh Hewitt Show." Her political blog has been featured on CNN, MSNBC, and in the Washington Post and Los Angeles Times.

La Shawn writes about politics, faith, culture, digital technology and, occasionally, how these things intersect.

By the way, don't call her "African American." She hates that term. If you must refer to her race, call her "black." And La Shawn is not a Republican. She's an independent conservative.
