You are definitely on some Pharrell **** with "New Black".
Changing a person's mentality isn't going to just end up ignoring their reality and what they have to go through on a day to day basis.
It just makes you seem disconnected from reality but yeah that's fine. I don't want you to respond to my posts in this thread because we have already had this discussion and I know where you stand and you obviously know where I stand.
If you haven't heard the Oprah interview with Pharrell this is what he said.

The 'New Black' doesn't blame other races for our issues," Pharrell began. "The New Black dreams and realizes that it's not a pigmentation; it's a mentality. And it's either going to work for your, or it's going to work against you. And you've got to pick the side you're gonna be on."

You can go on pretending that racism is just an issue in little backwater towns when it's not. It's not the reality that people have to live with day to day.
*officers pulls you over*
You: Oh sorry officer, I'm the New Black. Not like those others. My mentality has changed.
