Sorry for the mini bump, but I just had to comment on this.

Mmhm.
Stereotypical people need to stop... Its the stereotypical ones that truly make me mad.
Being that I learned that they all aren't the same I made this, a scale of White black guy to monday.
-White Black guy: Black man acting white
-Black guy: A man who slightly lives up to the stereotype but is still alright.
-brother: Follows the stereotype a bit, acts like their badass, not exactly the guy you'd hang out with
-monday: Straight up stereotypical black man who steals and all that stereotypical stuff, acts like a big shot, completely ignorant, and isn't someone you want to hang out with. Usually in a gang.
Its the attitude... Its nothing to do with their skin color.
What is "Acting white" and why is it at the top of the list? Is being a normal black person and being yourself not good? Is being white the definition of all that is good and right?
Also, I'm not bothered by derogatory words, but I think that the reason that some blacks have a problem with it is because they were the people who were involved in slavery in the first place, and had all these bad experiences about the past, and people in general. So it might have a different effect on them when a white man says that.
Alyx is the type of person who was raised being taught the wrong thing. It's not humane, and I don't get how you say you have black friends, and that you've changed, yet say the only good black people are the ones who act white. Really?
