I sure do. I used to get called "sell out" by some of the Af-Am students at my Alma Mater because of the kind of music I listened to, the diverse ethnic backgrounds of my friends, and any number of things.

I finally came to the conclusion that I'm not to blame for other people's essentialist ideas of what it means to be Black. There are as many ways to exhibit "blackness" as there are Black folks on this planet.
