American and British Culture was almost mirror-like many, many years ago. Then America branched off into its own thing, but one thing never changed: the lack of cultural acknowledgement. To this day, there are children in America who've never seen an African American in person. Many ask, 'why are blacks in America called African American?' when their families, for generations, were born right here on US soil!? Or get this- black Britons receive no black British history... at all! It's non-existent! What's really happening?

Issues like this is what author Tracy J. Prince addressed, and so much more in her book, Culture Wars in British Literature. This book is filled with amazing information and debates on cultural identity, but not just for blacks and whites, but Chinese, Jewish and other immigrants. She went into explaining the differences between civil rights in America compared to UK, something I'd always believed to be identical. This book blew my mind, allowing me to transform my ignorance into understanding...
