Yea we're seeing in the news reports all the redneck-on-redneck violence with them doing drive by's in their pick ups and killing each other in record numbers. Oklahoma, Arkansas, Alabama, are seeing huge increases in killing leaving confusion at the local mortuaries where all the deceased's are named Bubba.

So... How would those in the ghetto actually ever interact with rednecks so as to emulate their behavior? Do they take field trips or something? Is there a redneck outreach program?

Ok....I finished my drive by and turned in my welfare application.... check the evening news....no snitching though. You don't know nothing and never heard nothing. I got a BLM rally later though....then off to a meeting with Al Sharpton.

Anyway......why do we speak English even though this is not England . I know that is probably too tough a question for you, but England colonized America and established the culture, which included language. Even before we go to school....most of us simply learn it from our parents, who learned it from their parents, who learned it from their parents...etc. Hence, even though we are far removed from England and the Colonist from England, we still perpetuate English culture to a great degree, including language. In the same way, blacks learned negative white culture, call it redneck if you like, while existing in the south. Then there was the great migration of blacks from the American South to the industrial north into areas you now call ghettos. They carried with them the culture they learned from the south, including SOUL food, which is essentially and really simply southern food. Soul food is more like Plantain, Yams and foo foo...lol.

What school did you say you graduated from again? Was it a "good school"...lol. If so....good schools are highly overrated.

There is more I want to add. Blacks who lived in the North(with no ties to the South) tended to learn from what was around them. During WWI, Blacks from Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Illinois scored higher on mental tests than Whites from Kentucky and Alabama.

No doubt. However, you and I know this is just a game. These folks have preconceived notions and have no compelling reason to want those notions to change. Somehow their ignorance gives them pleasure or why else would you reject knowledge and truth? To look down on blacks as inferior gives them comfort.

Looking down on a certain group, though not limited to looking down on Blacks, does provide a distraction. The Jews have been hated on alot. Interestingly enough, it isn't much different than when other groups faced hatred. Think about the term "middle man minority". Armenians in Turkey are another example.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middleman_minority

Thomas Sowell discussed it like this. The people who move somewhere who are poor, and then the next generation does very well for themselves. Some people find it easier to hate others for succeeding than themselves for not succeeding.

Heck even today almost all blacks probably score higher on mental tests than whites in Alabama and Kentucky...

All joking aside

I'd say that's really an over generalization or misleading of facts and I'd like to see the source. I'll also go ahead and say it here beforehand that I bet if you do provide a source its a single simple source by a black author.

Not to discredit the findings because the author is black but rather to point out it's probably more agenda driven than based on really factual information, almost like how homosexuals twist the Bible to fit their own agenda.

Edit to add:

I found your source

His essay argues that, among those groups, educational statistics were on par with similarly-trained whites (and higher than southern whites in general), and continued on an upward trend until the advent of multiculturalism

Thus confirming my point

Let me get back to reading a little on this Thomas Sowell guy

I bet if he chimed in to claim that a study showed that redneck whites had higher IQs than college educated blacks......you would have not asked for a link to a study....LMBAO. You would have not googled up the author.....you would have just ran with it as FACT because it comports to your preconceived notions about black cognitive inferiority to whites.....non of which I see evidence of on this forum.
