Hip Like Me: Years in the Life of a Person of Hair

Hip Like Me is the story of Geoffrey Falk's experiences over a decade of being subjected to various forms of "hair-ism" and real discrimination for being a long-haired, irreligious software developer and aspiring musician in a short-hair world. Written in the diary-like structure of John Howard Griffin's classic Black Like Me, it touches irreverently (and with much political incorrectness) on a wide range of very controversial topics, from the nature of racism to multiculturalism to immigration policy to affirmative action to the parodied need for "Hippie Studies" faculties in our universities. Get ready for a long, strange trip, with a good dose of laugh-out-loud humor and occasional language worthy of South Park thrown in.
