I just hope he doesn't take offense to my post but I'm just being honest. He needs to find a way to rid himself of the bitterness that seems trapped inside. Once he does, his social interactions with those of his own race will be better. It sounds like he's trying to run away from what he proclaims to be the problem but no matter how much he runs, the problems will always be there because his issues are rooted inside of him. He sounds like a really good dude at heart but he definitely has some things he needs to address with himself.

did anybody else chuckle tonight when the Russell Wilson Bose headphones commercial came on?
I thought it was kinda ironic since that's such a white person's brand of headphones compared to Dre Beats

As a self proclaimed educated black man how is it that you don't any educated, grounded black women. I know a ton. My wife had a masters at 25. Many of her black female friends were similar.
During my time at LSU I met many great black women with their heads on straight. Same could be said for any college in this country.
It is such an insult for you to spew this garbage as if it is some fact.
It's pretty well known that there's fewer successful, professional black men when compared to black women in large cities. Black women have been bemoaning this for decades now - should they "date down" with less educated black men or should they try and date professional white men who (as a whole) aren't very interested in black women?

Are there any black people in this thread denying the divide between what are considered "white" blacks, and the "real" blacks?
They don't mix well mostly because they have more in common (upbringing/interests) with whites than with other black people.
It doesn't matter, white, blue, brown, or orange, in 2014 it's more about socioeconomics than the color of your skin.
Obviously there are a few bigots sprinkled in, but overall, I've seen kids friend groups that have white, Indian, black, Asian, and Mexicans all hanging out because of the common thread of their backgrounds and interests.

Not sure what you're getting at, tbh. I've gotten plenty of grief over the years for "talking white," and the like, but that's usually the extent of it.

You can be an affluent black person and still "act hood" and mix in well with urban culture (which applies not only to black people, of course).

It has ALWAYS been more about socioeconomics than race.

I agree, and this is the norm, rather than the exception.
