Killling a Myth: Why "Acting White" Isn't the Problem

[tantric]

While I was studying Japanese, I was an 'egg' (think about it), my best friend, Taiwanese, was a straight up banana. IQ off the charts and he failed Chinese school. I chose to adopt some Japanese culture, he adopted American culture - because it's a choice. Why shouldn't black people decide how to behave? I lived in a pretty bad part of Atl for a while - if I'd grown up there, all I'd feel for my birth culture is shame. Frankly, black Americans have zilch connection to Africa and tend to have some very odd ideas about history (black Americans are NOT descended from Egypt) but on the other hand, I see it. Postmodern culture. Be white, be Nuwabian, be whatever, just be free.

"Why shouldn't black people decide how to behave?"

Because black people are misbehaving? Because black people as twelve? Because you know how all black people are and the way they are can be traced back to their bad choices? Bad choices which they make why? Please explain exactly what you saying, beside you know a guy and this what happened with that guy.
