"Yo, stop acting Black!" ...How do you act Black?

[Impulse87]

I personally don't think of it as acting black. I think of it more as acting like a punk and conforming to the stereotypes that society has implemented upon you. I went to a pretty bad school and I had to deal with a lot of these types of people. A bunch of useless pieces of **** who either didn't care about school, talked loudly in class, fucked with people who kept to themselves and tried to be gangster even though they weren't. They blamed others for their misfortune like the fact that they weren't going to graduate high school either because the curriculum was too "hard" (The teacher taught at a fucking seventh grade level, no way it was too hard).

In the end, it's not acting black, it's acting like a punk. If a person wants to talk ebonics or act ghetto that's on them. No one will take them seriously especially if they're white or not from that sort of background

I get that... "you don't act black."

Hoping someday people can just be. But I am guilty of sometimes hating on folk that push ghetto/rap stereotypes, when if I'm gonna be right about it, I should be acknowledging that people should just be how they want to be.

The skin tone alone always gives it away for me.

There's more than one definition of the word 'identify,' chief.

Clench your knuckles during your henshin pose, talk in a dark, solemn tone, and then assume every odd phenomenon is the work of Golgom. That's how you act Black.
