Also, I am wondering in what sense you are using the word "culture" here. 

I'm thinking if there is such a thing as "black culture" in the U.S., it ought to include black conservatism, the novels of Ralph Ellison and Toni Morrison, social analyses of W. E.B. DuBois, chain gang songs, jazz and church spirituals, along with the movies of Spike Lee.

Wait, it's not a monolith characterized solely by rap music? It's almost like we need to be teaching about black history and culture...
