Crack explains why, in a de-industrializing America in which market forces ruled and entrepreneurial risk-taking was celebrated, the crack industry was a lucrative enterprise for the "Horatio Alger boys" of their place and time. These young, predominately African American entrepreneurs were profit-sharing partners in a deviant, criminal form of economic globalization. Hip Hop artists often celebrated their exploits but overwhelmingly, Americans - across racial lines - did not. Crack takes a hard look at the dark side of late 20th-century capitalism.

Progressively horrible.
Revisado: 11-10-20
He starts out with an academic approach to content which is very informative. As he progresses and uses black accents I found it insulting. These attempts at “Ebonics” were unnecessary and totally inaccurate. He seemed to relish in using this style of talk and it did not differentiate no matter the black person he was quoting. Horrible.
