You are acting White, I mean Black, I mean Brown, I mean Yellow.

Question the meaning behind words! What does it mean to "act" a certain way? I heard an African American girl on tv say that her friends started telling her she was acting white. WHY? --because she is doing better in school? --because she speaks well? There are no white or brown or black or yellow ways to act. You can act hip hop as Dana says, or you can act street, or you can act college, but you can't act a COLOR. We are individuals who make decisions on the way we are in the presence of others and we are all born with the same potential and blood running through our veins. If acting white means to do well in school or to speak in an educated way, then what is it to act black? You are disrespecting African Americans everywhere to associate negative traits with a color of skin. THINK about what you say. Use LOGIC to uncover hidden messages behind what people say. Our behavior is NOT about color, it's about education, wisdom and compassion. It's about choice.
