Now I will say, this may be a somewhat challenging read for those who don’t have a background in academic theory, but I think it’s doable if you’re willing to stop and google things, which I still had to do myself despite my academic background. Thankfully, “Black on Both Sides” has a deliciously robust bibliography which I have marked up for future reading. The second was that I need to broaden the academic theory I read. The first thing I learned reading this was that I’m very out of practice when it comes to reading academic theory.
