Haven’t looked but, good grief! Anyway, Tom Sowell has written a book which pitches the idea that so-call African American culture is really just a modified form of southern American culture. Soul food, for the most part, is like the diet of the Native Americans in the region , with the addition of pork. The anti-intellectualism of the blacks, their lack of talent in discursive reasoning, why they do so poorly on standardized tests, is like that of the poor Southern whites. What was his book? Black Red Necks? Many blacks and many whites have moved away from that cultural paradign, but it has become a part of our whole national culture now.

From the list it sounds like the book "Black Rednecks and White Liberals" (2005).
