First of all, a few months ago, a store for getting gold teeth opened up in the mall I work in. I was walking past it, and my jaw dropped. Right then, an older white woman said to me, 'What were they thinking? That's disgusting!' I told her that I had no idea. But at the same time I wanted to ask her 'Who is 'they'?
Another incident was today when I was watching the local news. Sometimes school children visit the station and the station crew films them at the end of the broadcast. Anyways, today they had some kids from a local middle school visting the station. Why is it that 3 of the kids threw up gang signs at the camera?

Oh my goodness, Hyperbeauty!!!
That's just plain ole IGNANT!!!! Speaking of children and being embarassed, I just thought of yet ANOTHER thing that I can't STAND to see. Hows about children, whose mothers are together (meaning hair done, clothes straight, etc.), yet the children look like they are from Rowanda, Cambodia, or some place like that. I see it ALL of the time y'all. The children run around with dirty, mismatched, tatered clothing. Their heads are straight up PEEZY, noses running, faces (along with the REST of their bodies) dirty. And to top it all off, they have first-hand knowledge AND experience in being disrespectful, they call their mothers (AND grandmothers and anyone else) by their FIRST names. They cuss like sailors, and FIGHT all of the dag-gone time. The BABIES have on NOTHING except a dirty-rump diaper that needs to be changed and their hair is either NOT done or HALF done. One thing that is even MORE embarassing than this scenario is when the parents, specifically the MOTHERS, look and act the same way. Can we say complete NIGGAROSITY (and I know that there's no such word)???????
This kind of mess is just plain ole' NASTY and TOTALLY embarassing in ANY community. Yet, I've noticed it to be prevelant in the low-income African-American community.
BUT FOR THE GRACE AND MERCY OF GOD Y'ALL...!!!!! BUT FOR THE GRACE AND MERCY OF GOD...!!!!!!!!
