[QUOTE="ShadowSD:1129083"][QUOTE="boxxy:1129022"]Are you referring to what most people call "wiggers"? Because it's pretty narrow minded to say that suburban white kids have to dress, or talk a certain way. (or that they CAN'T dress or talk a certain way) And can there not be suburban black kids? What about when THEY speak in ebonics and dress with urban flair? Is THAT ok just because they're black? How people want to speak, or to dress, is totally up to them, and to look down on them for it is closed minded.[/QUOTE] People can and are going to do whatever they want, but arillusbm is right, for middle class or rich white kids to purposefully mimick the gestures and mannerisms of the black and poor is pretty fucked up; it used to be called blackface when this happened in the old days, but somehow became acceptable in an era that started in about 1993 with majority white record executives mass-marketing rap to suburban white teenagers. Your analogy of the reverse fails because there's no such thing as "whiteface" and I was the one in this thread who to first said the obvious fact that preppies can be black or any color; there is no such thing as "acting black" as we're all individuals, there IS however (just like the Cagney accent among some of the British) a certain dialect and mannerism that evolved among urban poor blacks that the worst and most demeaning caricature of which is for some reason mimicked by dumbfuck rich white kids who think they're tough and cool - and they are completely oblivious as to how absolutely fucking racist it is, nor does anyone call them out on it. Don't tell me it's closed minded to realize it's in poor taste, it's closed-minded not to; it's openly making fun of a demeaning caricature of of a race considered completely accepable for the purposes of mass selling CD's and clothes to idiots, and while rich white kids are obviously free to walk around with fake accents 24-7 acting like the ugliest underclass stereotype of a black person (or an Indian person or a Chinese person for that matter), I am equally free to point out that they're fucked up to do it, and that it's also fucked up that such behavior is considered acceptable only as long as it's the poor urban black caricature being parodied.[/QUOTE]
