I think 'Acting White' is what the comedians do in their stand up routines when making jest of white people. (Lol)

hey, WELCOME MY FRIEND, Mr. Cook! Great to see you here.....
I'm with you guys on acting white....it's more a class issue than a race issue and it's mixed all up, too.
this makes me think about the comedian Cedric the Entertainer when he does hi bit on being accused of "acting "funny." If you have never heard it, it will keep you hollering and I would rather be accused of acting white/black than acting FUNNY!-LOL:)-

Glad you're in the space, Mr. Cook!!!! I can keep up with your subscriptions over here much better, too!

I see this statement to me falls into a language of sterotypes. Just as saying you're acting like a N........ and I have discovered in the my own short span of life. People use names to identify or label what they want to ridicule or put shame or even poke fun. There is no bearing at all on what the individual truly is. Everyone has skin color so what is acting Chinese, what is acting Indian....Awwh! It's total nonsense! That's what it is! (Smiles)

I believe 'acting' white is allowing your small children to RAISE you, the adult. Please check this out at your nearest market...

I believe laughing at every obnoixious sound that comes from your various body parts as funny is 'acting' White.

I believe that playing 'jokes' that back fires / do harm to others is 'acting' White among many other childish behaviors that should be condemned in every sane and sober social order.

I agree with you MISTRAEL, because when I want to do every thing but not tell that parent to stop bribing their children and do as Mrs Obama did, 'just give that famous Black stare" as she did and her child stopped acting up at the inegration! Yes t is all about the Black (race's)community not having a voice. But, people with White skin do on the Jewish run media never telling the truth about POOR/BLACK children knowing better to throw a toy off a cliff because the ADULTS M-U-S-T risk their lives and the lives of others(God knows how much it cost the taxpayers)just to please a Child who is raising him parents.These would never work with a Black mother...

Yes this is sterotyping/ racist(?) but above all it is the God's TRUTH!!!!!!!
