Greenwood Publishing Group : African Americans and Popular Culture

Reviews:

-"...the series is a good addition to high school, public, and undergraduate libraries." —ARBA

-"A number of black popular culture studies are currently available, yet each seems narrowly focused; this collection puts everything in one place. Overall the essays are well written, relevant, and accessible, and the index thorough..." —CHOICE

-"The individual topics are well-chosen and occasionally pleasantly surprising, featuring considerations of superheroes, hip-hop moguls, and sports television, and each topic is covered by either an academic specialist in the field or (as in the case of the sports essays) a non-academic expert. . . . an excellent collection of general writings on popular culture that might nonetheless be too advanced for high school and public library audiences. Highly recommended for all academic library collections." —MultiCultural Review
