I hear what yu are sayong, but inthis country, we already know much about European culture. Its taught inthe school system. Unfortunantly, we are not taught very much about african american culture. CAse in point, I knew a black girl that dated nothing but upper class white guys. We were talking about Black history monthm and I was appauled at the lack of knowledge she had about her own people. She told me she was never exposed to those things.

Thas why I came to the conclusion I did. Like I said, my views are steadily changing. And, again, livinginthe south, until lately, the only races I mainly come into contact with are blacks and whites. Dont see many asians. But now a days you do.
I know many brothers (that only date white girls) that are just as clueless when it comes to things such as the topic of BHM or other things that affect us. They only date non-black girls and really don't have a thing to be with our neighborhood or communities either.

But at the same time, just because Leroy is comfortable bringing Becky to the local black restaurant or to the black club doesn't automatically make her an expert on black culture either.

In your first example, don't you think the sista would probably be the one to expose him more (ex. Understanding of black hair, take him to church with her, bring him around family, cooking , etc.)?

Ok, let me stop hijacking....

Mullaatogyrl...did you say Triple H? Go 'on girl.
