5 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT Black Tradition 1. A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLACK Tradition AND "BLACK CULTURE." Black Tradition, sans quotes, is the total of cultural contributions to the mainstream by the black subculture. It's a fluid and multifaceted, often contradictory thing. 2. "BLACK CULTURE" OFTEN EMPLOYS, BUT IS NOT ALWAYS DEFINED BY, ACTUAL BLACK PEOPLE Often by the time "Black Culture" is being used to sell a product or idea, it's already been reinterpreted by white people.
