Dudes are dudes.

A young black couple just walked pass by and the guy was saying "...that's just true, dudes are dudes, niggers are niggers...".

Well, I tend to agree to that statement. I believe that no matter how much hiphop influences white America or how much hispanics or black get into high positions, there's still a divide between races. I don't know who's more to blame, the white, the black, or the brown border jumpers, but I definitely do not blame the white race for the differences that have been created. I think everyone has the power to beat the system and change their destiny. I know that sounds a little too optimistic coming from a Muslim immigrant, but hey... this is the land of oppurtunity. For example, I always say to myself that for as long as I can I will use the oppurtunities and freedoms I've been given here to better myself and my future and hopefully give something back in return. Anyone can and should do the same.

And I know that that black "dude" has no idea what I've just talked about.

To whom it may concern. I think you are off base with your assessment of the statement made by the black couple, "...that's just true,dudes are dudes and niggers are niggers." When you hear blacks refer to themselves as dudes/niggers it is more socially related -cultural normals that are applied to these labels - a kind of vanecular understood by all blacks-not just the hip hop world. We as black people have struggled so hard in this country so that all people - who where considered outsiders ( even you ) can enjoy social and economic freedoms that we use plain english when speaking about opportunities. We've layed down our lives to long to be misunderstood.... :wink:
