Actually. no.. That isn't it at all.
It is if you don't understand inner city. My step daughter was brought up in inner city.. she understands inner city. She gets along perfectly find in that environment, and she gets along perfectly with the blacks. The black girls absolutely adore her, because she can communicate with them on their level , with their words, with their attitudes.
She also is blond hair , blue eyed and very very white looking. It's not a matter of skin color, It is a matter of attitude.
