Black ####. Hmm, I'd be honest and have to say I've never thought of it that way before and wouldn't normally be so bold to say it. But the way Jason Whitlock describes, you can't help but agree. This is plain and simply the most direct, honest, no nonsense explanation to not only Sean Taylor and Darrent Williams' deaths but hundreds of thousands if not millions of American black men. A hip-hop culture that has grown and encompasses beyond the lines of color, has become the dominant curse that only few have ever seen or enjoyed as a blessing. Urban males across the country have for years and will continue in the future look to the role of the "hard ####er" drug dealing, gun in the waist wielding image that are seen as the only means to respect of their peers. But this so called garnered respect is what write their death warrant. Waht they strive so hard for so long to obtain simply guarantees their demise. Unfortunaelty I was at a funeral just yesterday that fortunately not the result of bloodshed, tragecialy resulted in the same manner and mentality of the young urban male lifestyle, an overdose. They call is survivial, I call it sure demise, the fast lane from cradle to the grave. It will take real the so called heroes in the rap game, Diddy, Jay Z, 50 Cent, Kayne and the like to get "real", get courageous, and get a plan to save the young black race.
