And I think that's the most interesting part of racial whatever. Punks and thugs come in all colors, and granted blacks are overrepresented in the prison population. But I'm curious how much our pop culture and the perpetuated stereotypes contribute to that.
I am interested too, I am here for no racial misreprentaion... I just want to know the actual facts.
