A review by quinetta
Hip-Hop High School by Alan Sitomer

1.0

Preface, I didn’t read this book but I can guarantee this white man wrote from a place of having limited interaction with only a very small segment of the black community. Just the brief synopsis on the back of the books shows he lacks true understanding of black culture as a whole or part and attempts to explain it to others - like the blind leading the blind. Do not suggest this book to any young reader for there are far more well written books that are written by black people that would be a better option. You don’t need to read a book by someone who put on literary blackface to sell a book about something he knows nothing about and couldn’t even be bothered to do any research to make it sound half way convincing.
