I'd recommend Black Rednecks, White Liberals if you're interested in cultures. It more or less says that black culture is really old redneck culture. Really interesting read.

I've read that, and conquest and culture. some very refreshing thoughts and intuition. I haven't read anything I feel is totally off key. I'm pretty good with the 'people and reasons' are but really lack in political areas..
