Cut and Paste from the talk page for RaceFail '09:
I added the big five posts (as I see it) from the central story of Racefail '09 to this page. I put them in in-line citation style. I believe that the story flows better that way, and that readers can more easily read original sources. If this page gets long, which it should to tell the full story, I don't want readers not reading original sources because they are tired of popping down to the footnotes to click a link. I used (sometimes long) quotes from these sources to let people's words speak for them. I am not comfortable at all paraphrasing or filtering the words of others regarding this issue.
Please, this sort of writing is not my strong suit, fix the grammar/style if it is required.
Also, I was thinking of including a link to the profile page for Elizabeth Bear's LJ. In this discussion we have people, like her, who openly link their legal name to their journal user name and we have people who do not. If we make a page for E. Bear, which we likely should do, that information can go there, so I left it out for now.
Note for anyone who has written about this or collected links: deepad has moved the publicly available versions of her posts to DW.

I had time to add a bit to the page.
