Soledad on CNN - the new America, minority is majority not Joe the Plumber...
I was worried when ‘hip-hop started to become mainstream... It seemed like ‘60s counter culture’ music, only it got a pass because it was music from a ‘minority’, even though much of the lyric was confrontational and filled with violence.
White youth adopted hip-hop to be ‘cool’ just like we did back then. Now, white youth think it’s ‘cool’ to have a black man in The White House. They don’t care about his politics.
Minorities may very well become a majority if our white youth continue to behave like something they’re not.
I did enjoy Obama’s remark to a youth to ‘pull his pants up’, but the damage is done. Our white youth have lost their cultural identity.
And let’s not forget, Soledad, that there is a black man now as POTUS. The black man is NOW in control. That being said, blacks can NO LONGER say that they cannot be racist, and whites are.
You see, the black man now has the power! Blacks are racist, and whites cannot be.
And slowly we turn.....
