Shit, i can't even walk around with my white wife on my arm in some neighborhoods - we get looks that would knock stink off shit. But, right, this is all the media's fault. Riiiight |
It's predator pressure. Or that's what I call it when groups that have been traditionally descriminated against circle the wagons and are hostile to outsiders.
I had the pleasure of attending a black Methodist church as a child. One of my mother's friends belted out some powerful gospel and our family would go with her family to church. Lots of dancing and singing. If you're going to praise Jesus, then these folks had the right idea.
I think we were accepted first because we were sponsored by a member... and later because we were well behaved and respectful.
