@DelEvery black american can fondly recall growing up in their own little enclaves and neighborhoods during different eras associated with special memories in regard to music and styles of dress and popular dances and what constituted coolness. Black folks have always managed to cope and find ways to enjoy life within the confines of their communities and culture. We have done this not because of America's history but in spite of it.

@Pioneer1 below is a book that you and every American really need to read. We really need to understand the nature of how the country was founded and formed It really was a very gruesome affair not just for Black folks and the indigenous populations, but for poor whites as well. It is helpful to be patriotic as it strengthens a nation, but if you are patriotic without understanding your country, then you are just a fool (not saying you are a fool, just speaking in general).

Bother, I have to agree. No matter how we deny, we are not what we should be. Fathers, Mothers leading our children. Not Rhetoric
