Few urban critters are more reviled than the hipster. They are notoriously difficult to define and yet we know one when we see one. No wonder: they were among the global cultural phenomena that ushered in the 21st century. They have become a bulwark of mainstream culture cultural commodity status butt of all jokes and ready-made meme. But frightening as it is to imagine for more than a century hipsters have been lurking among us. Defined by their appearances and the cloud of meaning attached to them-the cool vanguard of gentrification the personification of capitalism with a conscience-hipsters are all looks and these looks are a visual timeline to America's past and present. Underlining this timeline is the pattern of American popular culture's love hate theft relationship with Black culture. Yet the pattern of recycling has reached a chilling point: the 21st century hipster made all possible past fads into new trends including and especially the old uncool. In Decolonize Hipsters Grégory Pierrot gives us a field guide to the phenomenon a symptom and vanguard of the wave of aggressive white supremacist sentiment now oozing from around the globe.
