Title: Personal Notebook
Product review: This book is short on information, and long on the author's personal thoughts. It's not hateful, because she doesn't exploit, but it's boring and tiresome to hear her doing little more than flinging out her own jazzy rhetoric instead of providing facts and details about what's really going wrong with black classlesness. Apparently she had a good idea, seeking to report on why and how black inner city culture glorifies staying down, but the message is presented in a look-at-what-I-can-do style that is very disappointing. She's much too much giddy with her own Hoo Ha reflections, such as her chronically annoying "(I'm ghetto)," and "(I'm not ghetto)" closings to every paragraph where she demonstrates a personal preference - and there are far too may of them. If you want to learn all about Cora Daniels' thinking process, Ghettonation is the book for you. If you want to find out, as I did, some basic information on the offputting black underculture, wait for someone else to report it.
