See now I was over here thinking about **+$ a little deeper than a damn du-rag (music etc.).
OP is that the kind of crap you're talking about?

If you are not catholic you shouldn't wear rosaries I hate to see someone thats not catholic or religious wearing them. I remember when I was at the mall and this dude was trying to sell me a fake G-shock I just

I was going to come in and say something about how one time I got flamed in class because I wouldn't say that the reason why I tan during the summer is because I want to be a black woman...
But we're just talking about durags

thoughts?

oh and he likened rosary beads to a Jesus piece.

if you consider this only within the borders of the U.S. and Canada then I would agree it may seem like black people feel like their the most emulated.

But worldwide white people are the most emulated imo.

Matter of fact everybody takes different things from different cultures/races so this issue is just a small niche kinda thing imo.

When you are talking about "white" worldwide it differs. You cant group French, Germans, and English people into what race category for this type of discussion. White in America is different than white globally. We are talking mostly "black" as African American unless im mistaken.
