Barbershops, Bibles, and BET: Everyday Talk and Black Political Thought. By Melissa Victoria Harris-Lacewell. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2004. 336p. $35.00. The central claims of this book are that the conversations ordinary black folk have with each other matter politically, and that there is a diverse range of ideological perspectives endorsed by African Americans. The author, Melissa Harris-Lacewell, supports these contentions by means of survey research, experimental studies, and ethnographic research. This comprehensive approach represents a significant accomplishment and, in combination with the theoretical contributions of the text, makes the book an invaluable addition to the African American politics canon
