I was doin an interview with this journalist from Columbia University about Harlem/Washington Heights and I stressed that point to her...
I have to watch my EVERY move because to others my actions will determine their thoughts of the NEXT black man they encounter, and other races don't have to deal with that... If Paris Hilton is caught with cocaine are the cops gonna pull over every pretty white chick in a nice car?? Prolly not...
If me and YOU rob someone, will the police stop EVERY young black man they encounter for the next 2 months?? Prolly...
If someone's opinion on black people can be swayed that easily, they have no business in my life. I do my best every day to represent myself. I know some times I hold a greater responsibility such as when I was the only black male in my advanced math classes in High school. But I never once thought to myself "Oh let me do my homework before my classmates think all black people are lazy". I do my hw cause I want to do it. End of story.
I'm not disagreeing with you saying some people dont judge a whole race based off a few bad apples. I'm just saying that they're ignorant and I don't give a f***
Somethings will NEVER change...
That's just the way it is...
