Damn, my geography's all off. Allow me to drop a book-bomb here: [http://www.amazon.com/Blues-People-Negro-Music-America/dp/068818474X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1394349000&sr=8-1&keywords=blues+people](Blues People), because it is one of the best books that tracks African heritage in American music. Also, I meant to edit the syntax above because my "help[ing]" is ambiguous; gave a second thought about it and I thought I wrote I was going lynching. Hell no! I'm... not black; but, my Mexican co-workers call me a "wigger" all the time and it's super uncomfortable. They call me over when there's extra cheese to eat, (I work at a greek place, so feta abounds), and I don't know, sometimes I don't know what to say so I just start speaking Spanish.
