a guy friend of mine who goes 2 A&T & now lives in Greensboro, NC....& grew up in different places throughout the U.S., due 2 his father being in the military....tells me that his fav. place 2 live so far was Michigan...because in so many words, he said that the Black people down here r rather "narrow-" or "close-minded" when it comes to certain things...
& the example he used was that he is very adventurous...and participates in sports that are considered non-typical of many Blacks....like rock-climbing...sky-diving...skateboarding....skiing...etc. etc. etc...
and he says when he tells his friends & peers down here about those types of things...they respond with something to the extent of "pssh, Black people don't do that" lol...& he says he hates that...
well my question is, what are some things that you all do (or say) that are "stereotypical" of another race? and what are some things you DON'T do (or say) that are "stereotypical" of Blacks?
Well, i'm an outdoor type of a person. I like hiking, rock climbing, and skiing. My next goal is to do some wind surfing and also hanggliding. Does this make me white?
