And this one from a few years back: Everything But the Burden: What White People Are Taking from Black Culture

http://aalbc.com/cgi/aalbcamazonproductsfeed.cgi?item_id=076791497X&search_type= AsinSearch&locale=us

It's been on my discount book store "look-out list" for over a year now.

So many books, so little time!

Did anybody see the newsclip of Karl Rove "dancing" to rap music onstage at the annual press photographers banquet attended by all of the Washington newspaper bigwigs? Rove claims to be a fan of Rap music and looked absolutely ridiculous gyrating around. Now we know why the war that he masterminded is going down the tubes!

Isn't this what you want? White folks acting like black folks and vice versa?

Why are you asking "me" what "they" wanted?? Since you revere him so much, why don't you channel MLK and ask him what he wanted???
