Do We As African Americans Have A Culture?

[pinkies up]

I think that we do have a culture. Now if the question was do we have strong ties to our culture the answer would be no. Not everyone embraces their culture by attending cultural events on the matter, reading books, researching for yourself, or just sitting down with older members of your family. I think many people are too busy trying to blend into what America wants us to believe and we are loosing the closeness that was once our proudest attribute to boast. We used to be there for one another. We aren't anymore; unless it's to bring eachother down.
