The Artificial White Man
- Synopsis
-
While not denying the distinct styles of different ethnic groups, columnist, novelist, essaying, and television commentator Crouch believes that some people have trouble seeking their own individuality because they are trying to follow a recipe for how to be an acceptable member of their particular ethnic group. In particular, he argues that empty-headed appropriation or assumed membership in a besieged elite like the white world is far different from inspired reactions to influences from outside of someone's class and ethnic convictions. The blues is his primary metaphor. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
