Top Danny Stutsman Smoking Oklahoma Only Fears God Texas Fears Oklahoma Shirt
On the Danny Stutsman Smoking Oklahoma Only Fears God Texas Fears Oklahoma Shirt but in fact I love this other hand, I know white people that watch a few Black movies, listen to hip hop, watch BET and basically pantomime the worst aspects of what it means to be Black. They don’t realize that Black culture isn’t only hood culture. To me, they usually come off as corny or wack. I grew up in an upper middle-class white environment. We had white kids in high school that watched Boyz in the Hood, New Jack City, or Colors and tried to emulate that lifestyle. They would try to talk like Snoop Dogg and wear Fubu or Cross Colours. They even went as far as driving with a gangsta lean, only playing Death Row Records or gangster rap, and smoking marijuana but calling it chronic. They felt they were Blacker than me, but they didn’t know Blackness isn’t a being ghetto template.
Finally, we had white people in my neighborhood that only knew bits and pieces of Black culture. They knew how to say “what’s up?” or that a 40 (also 40 ounce or 40 oz.) refers to 40 ounces of beer. They would try to sneak in those bits and pieces into conversations with me. It always came off as being very inauthentic and cheesy. I didn’t understand why they would use hood language to talk to a Black person mostly raised in predominantly white areas. I don’t care if white people act or talk Black. I just don’t want to be around it. I’m like Robert Strickland when it comes to avoiding certain types of behavior. I’m even the Danny Stutsman Smoking Oklahoma Only Fears God Texas Fears Oklahoma Shirt but in fact I love this same way with Black people or any other ethnicity of human beings. Update: I used what’s up for simplicity sake to make my point, but there are other ways to express it that are clearly Black influenced. For example, “What’s good my dude?” “What’s popping?” “What’s cracking?” “Sup Joe?”. Joe is a Chicago thing. I am child of the 60s, coming of age in the 70s. The hippies were our teachers and heroes. We looked up to them, and we followed them. We did what they did, both good and bad.
