Thumbs up

Good point Straight BOS and Good question Sunshine 14,

Still,
"Selling Out" has a far greater impact on the black race than it does on the white race.

The emphasis should not be placed so much on how we do, but on what we do. You can be a BAPTIST, a member of a black frat/sorority, live in the ghetto, Democrat, etc... and still "Sell Out". In my opinion, it's all about being true to yourself, your family, your heritage, and your race. Pledge what you want to pledge. Vote how you want to vote. Pray how you want to pray. Live where you want to live. Just don't ever forget who we are as a people and the struggles that our BLACK ancestors had to go through to get us where we are today. If how you live your life does not compliment, in ANY way, the past and present struggles that blacks often go through, THEN YOU ARE A SELL OUT.

In my opinion, of course...
(I gotta watch myself, people are sensitive up in this camp...)
