MikeParticipantAfrican Americans may gesticulate more because we are a very expressive people. When we talk, we use our hands, the pitch of our voices varies and, a lot of the time, our emotions show up on our faces when we talk (either smiling, frowning, angry). People relate the loud talking and wise-cracking to people of a lower socioeconomic background than others, but African Americans speak with emotion.

MikeParticipantI myself have mixed feelings. People all over the world have dreads, but many do it for religious reasons. The people who Americans have connected dreads to are Rastas from the WEst Indies. The reason they have dreads is because in the bible, there are many passages that say that a man shouldn’t cut his hair or his beard. i think that if you are going to dread your hair you should do it for reasons which are truly spiritual or cultural. I dont really have a problem with it as long as peeps aren’t doing it because its the in thing to do. peace and blessings
