JamieMemberI’m not sure that ONLY black guys pimp out granny cars. I know that in the D.C. metro area this isn’t the case. It is a matter of what is affordable – to young people especially. Some kids have mommy and daddy to buy them cars when mommy and daddy have the money. But when the funds aren’t there. it’s up to the kid in need to find an affordable vehicle. So in Oklahoma maybe it is the division of classes you are seeing, not limited to but not excluding race.

JamieMemberI am an Italian American. I do consider myself Caucasian simply for instances where you have to check a box. I’ve yet to be confronted with the opportunity to check off the Italian American mark–yes you can hit other and type it in like I did just now–but that is a pain. However, when it comes to discussions of culture, I use the classification of Italian American. I think that in the US today that it is simple for people of white skin just to blend in with caucasians of European appearance making it more common. As for the inexistance of Italian ‘colonies’ as being the cause, they did exist once upon a time. SURVIVAL of Italian communities, on the other hand is a different story. My grandfather is first generation in my family. He came here when he was 10 and did not begin to speak english at all until he was 15. He simply didn’t have to because in no one in his West Virginia, Italian community spoke english either. So they did exist, just didn’t last.
