It is unfortunate though where black America is. you see... I, like many other conservative types i pal around with (and we have these discussions frequently) want blacks to succeed, we want them to be highly educated, we want to see them hold high paying positions and be masterful members of society commanding high salaries and joining us for cocktails at our Christmas parties.

Honest question - do you actually realise how insulting and patronising this attitude is?

but black culture in America is such that if you do these things... your just guilty of trying to be white. There is an expectation that you wear a hoddie, there is an expectation that you listen to the rhythmic bass of inner city rap music thumping away. Your expected to talk street a certain way. Its as if there is an image to maintain with being black, and if you step outside of the box the rest of your peers expect you to fit into you are ostracized. this is not prevalent in white culture.

You being a white guy would of course have at least a working knowledge of what "white culture" (jesus, whatever that is) does and does not contain.
Of course you have the same level and depth of knowledge of what "black culture" does or does not contain.
