[April23747]

One of the major reasons many people, such as yourself, can’t understand what young black people say is that they don’t want you to understand. Our young black culture has used the manipulation of language as a defense mechanism against those of the upper class and other ethnic backgrounds. It has become popular for them not to be smart or achieve in class because if they are considered lazy, the whites who are usually their instructors will leave them alone. My recommendation to you would be not to watch too much Ricki Lake; that is not a good basis on which to judge young black culture. Most of the people on that show are paid to act a certain way. That will not help you get more in touch with what is going on in the world today.
