Summary
While strolling through our neighborhood, my wife happened upon a group of young white girls, ages 8 or 9, playing in front of their home. The girls were singing in full throat Kanye West and Jamie Foxx's Gold Digger: "I ain't sayin' she a gold digga/but she ain't lookin' for no broke --!" My wife said her eyes just about fell out of her head. Mine certainly would have.
Another reader shared her opinion with me: "What I do find heartening is that those ghetto folks are proud to be just that, and more and more are identifying themselves thusly...it's not uncommon to hear people in their 20s-40s say proudly, 'I'm from the ghetto.' I think that's where the power is, that's where the life is, that's where our salvation is."See the full content of this document
