I wasn’t gonna say anything but whew this thread... the black experience is not 1 dimensional the only prerequisite of living the black experience is being black, black suburban folk have the right to speak on their experience. Let’s not divid the community any more than it https://twitter.com/fivefootfine/status/1252945623474634752

Already is. I will say It’s fair to argue that the voices of black peoples from the hood need to be uplifted tho. Also it’s fair to be upset with black kids from the suburbs trying to put on a hood persona. But largely they do this because (like in this thread) the narrative

That we push is the real black experience is only that of those whom have lived in the hood. We should dismantle that narrative nd instead represent the real diversity in our community.
