Book summaryIn this unusual anthology, more than 700 pages long, the definition of folklore includes not only traditional tales but sermons, recipes, and e-mail. Media reviews"While clearly a rich resource for, and a powerful introduction to, black American culture, the collection is also vastly entertaining, almost overflowing with centuries of wise, sad, and funny responses to centuries of living in the white man's world." |
