Acting white
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the United States, acting white is a pejorative term, usually applied to African Americans, which refers to a person's perceived betrayal of their culture by assuming the social expectations of white society.[1][2] Success in education in particular (depending on one's cultural background) can be seen as a form of "selling out" by being disloyal to one's culture.[2]
The term is controversial, and its precise meaning is hard to define.[1] Some minority students are discouraged from achieving in school by the negative prejudices of ethnic peers; such a view has been expressed in articles in The New York Times, Time magazine, and The Wall Street Journal—and by public figures and academics across the political spectrum.[2]
Thats obviously a silly white boys interpretation of what "acting white" means. Why did you let another white guy tell you what Black people mean?
So what is this "white culture" that you think is so bad for blacks?
Shooting up schools and movie theatres, incest, animal molestation, drugs dependency, leashing your children, promiscuity, macaroni with bread crumbs, etc etc. I could go on and on but you get the point.
How does a few crazies shooting up a school or movie theater impact blacks in any significant way?
Incest is party of white culture? Strange, I've never heard that. You mean blacks don't commit incest? I'd have to see some statistics on that.
The same goes for "animal molestation." In fact, the most notorious case of animal abuse I'm aware of is when Michael Vick was convicted of cruelty to animals. According to the talking heads on the networks news, dog fighting is quite popular among blacks.
"Leashing your children?" Do you mean those things mothers use to keep their toddlers from wandering off? That's harmful? Really?
Promiscuity is more of a black thing than a white thing. That's why they have so many illegitimate children. Did you know that 70% of all black children are illegitimate?
"Macaroni and bread crumbs" is harmful?" Really?
