Some of the questions were valid, some of them sound like shit bougie black people bring up to try and distance themselves from other black people.fvvvvAnybody that isn't seen as stereotypically black growing up in the black community is automatically labeled bougie though. We probably would be. !!!A lot of black people who get labeled as bougie usually have some internalized resentment from being rejected by other black people in their own communities.maybebut not from what I've seenif anything, people perceive successful black friends/family in a different way and place them in that "bougie" area. not the other way around.It can go both ways. From my experience, I've seen some black people taunt and antagonize other black people who are "different" or "alternative". That can lead to bitterness, embarrassment, and wanting to disassociate yourself for feeling rejected by those within your own race. These people weren't necessarily wealthy either, just working class folk who were perceived as different.Not that their internalized resentment is the right way to go about things.

Quote from: sumcatbroad on April 12, 2016, 09:14:26 PMQuote from: Drais. on April 12, 2016, 09:04:43 PMI can't really blame Timothy for being "bougie" after growing up in a predominately black school system and being outcasted by his community because he liked soccer instead of basketball, preferred rock to hip hop and wore vests and suits instead of jordans/baggy mess.Alot of people carry that into their adulthood subconsciously. I won't blame Keisha for being "ghetto" either for being shipped off to private school her whole life not and being able to relate to all the diversity and being outcasted because she grew up and was only exposed to a certain black culture.People are just different The video wreaks of that looking down on others thing you touched on. After watching some of the other clips, I can see these videos were done in jest. But being that black people are some of the most oppressed humans in history, we don't need to be highlighting a bunch of stereotypes for ppl to kii at.
