you and me can relate, grew up in white community, but spent a great amount of time in the nap so im very fam oriented. didnt go out too much though.

The key to understanding "white society" is knowing that white people don't go around thinking about being white all day. Life is just life, it's not white life.

It can be both beneficial and a struggle. It's beneficial because it exposes you to a different culture and can make you a more well-rounded individual. The struggle comes with the fact that you're "different" and you may find it difficult to relate to an entire population who is the opposite of yourself. And also, when you're not like everybody else, you tend to get mistreated and made to feel like an outsider. -

Thats his point. you label yourself as a black man. Instead of just being a man. -

I dig. What I'm saying is that in general, "white culture" in the US doesn't imbue each white person with a sense of race awareness. The average white person doesn't think "How will what I do today reflect on white people?"
That's just in general, though. Obviously, there are pockets of white culture that are preoccupied with race. I call these pockets "The South." -
