What about Claude Brown's "Manchild in the Promised Land?"
The second book is very informative as to the history of what happened in Harlem from the early 1930s all the way through the heroin epidemic of the 1950s from a personal anecdotal perspective.
What's the difference between a white redneck and a black redneck? Color is the only difference, according to Thomas Sowell.
With that in mind, we see the media celebrates black hood culture as authentic black culture and I'm sure we both agree that doesn't have to be the case.
We also see that those white people who grew up in predominately black neighborhoods and adopted black hood culture as their own are called wiggers as an insult.
I hate Wikipedia but this article on wiggers clearly demonstrates the bias while acknowledging this so called black culture predominates in urban areas-
"Another dictionary defines the term as "offensive slang" referring to a "white person, usually a teenager or young adult, who adopts the fashions, the tastes, and often the mannerisms considered typical of urban black youth"
What you are referring to is the idea of following rules. Blacks who speak the broken language are not following the rules.
I have said in the past. Yes... nations do have language barriers.
In my view you can no longer call those who speak English "White Culture". You can say the language comes from Europe as a source.
But that's not proprietary to white people only. I am a software engineer.
Microsoft created the programming language C#. Now you have people all around the world programming in C#.
When you add the words "White" or "Black" in front of something. In my view you are saying that it's proprietary to that group only.
You are adding the color to emphasize it for a reason.
Have you read Thomas Sowell's "Black Rednecks and White Liberals?"
