Thanks for the correction Soror, I do get those Lawrences mixed up sometimes.

To the last of what you said, I agree. Every community has in-fighting, but the difference is whether that in-fighting becomes the focal point that prevents us from focusing on more crucial matters; when it does, then that is a problem.

I guess the question then becomes what is the purpose of studies such as this one, the claims of which are not well-grounded in any sort of solid research? Do these studies function as a tool to perpetuate and sow divison? How are why are they useful?

The irony is that most black people do not have enough money to legitimately be considered a part of the bourgeoisie. Most of us are working class anyway.
