But you can't sit there and say there is no such thing. I've heard many denounce it. Just look at what the top songs in America are right now. All glorify the ghetto culture.

Whether there is a "popular black culture" isn't the issue. What was troublesome about the earlier post was the statement that most black people at X school are part of "popular black culture" and therefore not appropriate for membership in shinerbock's fraternity.
It's not okay to stereotype and use that as an excuse for excluding members of a race from an organization no matter where you are in the country.
