Descriere magazin:
White kids
from the \'burbs are throwing up gang signs. The 2001 Grammy winner for best rap artist was as white as rice. And blond-haired sorority sisters are sporting FUBU gear.
What is going on in American culture that\'s giving our nation a racial-identity crisis?Following the trail blazed by Norman Mailer\'s controversial essay "The
White Negro,"
Everything but the
Burden brings together voices
from music, popular culture, the literary world, and the media speaking about how
from Brooklyn to the Badlands white people are co-opting black styles of music, dance, dress, and slang. In this collection, the essayists examine how whites seem to be taking on, as editor
Greg Tate\'s mother used to tell him, "everything but the burden"-from fetishizing black athletes to spinning the ghetto lifestyle into a glamorous commodity. Is this a way of shaking off the fear of the unknown? A flattering indicator of appreciation? Or is it a more complicated cultural exchange? The pieces in
Everything but the
Burden explore the line between hero-worship and paternalism. Among the book\'s twelve essays are Vernon Reid\'s "Steely Dan Understood as the Apotheosis of \'The
White Negro, \'" Carl Hancock Rux\'s "The Beats: America\'s First \'Wiggas, \'" and
Greg Tate\'s own introductory essay "Nigs \'R Us." Other contributors include: Hilton Als, Beth Coleman, Tony Green, Robin Kelley, Arthur Jafa, Gary Dauphin, Michaela Angela Davis, dream hampton, and Manthia di Awara. About the Author: A cultural critic for The Village Voice, GREG TATE is also the author of Flyboy in the Buttermilk and contributes regularly to national publications such as Rolling Stone, VIBE, and the New York Times. In addition, he helped found the
Black Rock Coalition, produced two albums on his own label, and composed a libretto that was performed at the Apollo Theater. He lives in New York City.
