I agree Abm, and in response to Kc-trudiva, I was speaking about white people who would take it upon themselves to voluntarily read a black book. The everyday white person doesn't do this, so the ones who do do this, are ones who have an interest in black people although I think the way they'd identify with the black characters would be different.
Yukio, the question specified "African-American" literature. Admittedly I was generalizing. I guess we can all gain some perspective if we ask ourselves whether we react to a book about white people differently than we do to one about us. |
