  1. White Negroes: When Cornrows Were in Vogue . and Other Thoughts on Cultural Appropriation

  2. Description : Exposes the new generation of whiteness thriving at the expense and borrowed ingenuity of black people&#8212an explores how this intensifies racial inequality.American culture loves blackness. From music and fashion to activism and language, black culture constantly achieves worldwide influence. Yet, when it comes to who is allowed to thrive from black hipness, the pioneers are usually left behind as black aesthetics are converted into mainstream success&#8212an white profit.Weaving together narrative, scholarship, and critique, Lauren Michele Jackson reveals why cultural appropriation&#8212soething that&#8217sbecome embedded in our daily lives&#8212deerves serious attention. It is a blueprint for taking wealth and power, and ultimately exacerbates the economic, political, and social inequity that persists in America. She unravels the racial contradictions lurking behind American culture as we know it&#8212frm shapeshifting celebrities and memes gone viral to brazen poets, loveable potheads, and faulty political leaders.An audacious debut, White Negroes brilliantly summons a re-interrogation of Norman Mailer&#8217sinfamous 1957 essay of a similar name. It also introduces a bold new voice in Jackson. Piercing, curious, and bursting with pop cultural touchstones, White Negroes is a dispatch in awe of black creativity everywhere and an urgent call for our thoughtful consumption.
