Everything But the Burden: What White People Are Taking from Black Culture by

1.0

I was really excited to read this but it was not what I expected. It's much more academic than I anticipated. It's also from the early 2000s and felt a little bit too old. It's hard to read a book about pop culture from two decades ago!

Some of the essays were interesting - meditation on Eminem as a white rapper in the first part was pretty interesting. Others were less interesting to me.

Didn't quite finish it.
