Blackness as Folly: Debra Dickerson gambles on telling blacks to give up

The Village Voice
A book white folks will like. That’s how some describe The End of Blackness, Debra Dickerson’s polemic on race in America. “A book white folks will like” is shorthand for a book by an African American dealing with the subject of race that demands no reform on the part of white America.
