White talk black talk is a uniquely ethnographic account which places the use of black language forms in the speech of whites firmly in its social and political setting: in integrating disciplines in a creative way Hewitt sites a practical sociolinguistic study within a much wider and systematic sociological context of group interaction.
This study will be of special interest within sociolinguistics, the sociology of race-relations and of youth culture, and urban anthropology, but its rich and fascinating ethnographic detail will also make it of interest to the non-specialist.
