Perhaps we should recommend that country music and line dancing be taught in all inner city schools.... Put out some of those down-home values...

Actually that is a very good idea. Kids are starving for something different (the younger they are the better). I like rap, but then I'm 30 and not a thirteen year old boy raising himself. Churches are really trying, but the schools need to offer something other than what they think inner city black kids want. Sheesh I remember talking about Mozart in class, and one kid told me it's okay for YOU to listen to music like that, but I'd get laughed at my friends :-( There are a lot of kids in the 'inner city' that would listen to country if teachers didn't have such low expectations.
