White Negroes: When Cornrows Were in Vogue ... and Other Thoughts on Cultural Appropriation by Lauren Michele Jackson

5.0

I went into reading this book with an open mind. I knew the book was going to be about race and for the most it was but it wasn't just about race. This book was very insightful and shocking. It is heavy book with lots of information and facts/examples. In this book, Ms. Jackson uses examples from the music industry, different time periods and modern day issues to prove her point. This book blew my mind. I will be purchasing this book; it is something I want to have for years to come.

The only negative thing I have to say about this book is that is read a little like a textbook, but that could be because it was just tons of information. I felt like I need to go and do some research.
