I would most definitly call it typical.

To be blunt and completely honest, The african american girls in my school (most of them) resembled the girl in this video. not to the extreme she took it to, but it was not suprising.

I remember teachers, and students both getting harassed by them, for just walking into a room, or wearing a certain outfit.

I have seen a lot of girls getting in people's face's for absolutely no reason. Beating the hell out of eachother for giving eachother a wrong look.

I don't want to be stereotypical, but i have seen this kind of thing way to many times.
I’m not doubting that a lot of the “African American” girls at your school were “out of order” but to say “half’ is just a bit extreme.
Unfortunately, some people find this behavior to be acceptable. I don’t think this comes along with being a certain color but I believe it’s from lack of home training, anger, and dealing with ones own insecurities. I know I may sound crazy when saying this but some people really just know any better because they’ve never been taught otherwise. It’s sad but true.
I'm just not a fan of "stereotyping"!
