Juulie,

Black culture? White culture? Did someone kick all the Asians, Hispanics & other assorted mutts out of the country while I wasn't looking? And what society have you been observing that leads you to believe that there is *A* black culture and *A* white culture?
Oh, for Pete's sake, Dan, just because I'm being simplistic doesn't mean you can be. There isn't A black culture or A white culture, just as there isn't AN American culture. There are tendencies and they are real. Would you be happier if I called them sub-cultures or communities?
Nope.

I would be happier if you just didn't make overly broad and simplistic statements that paint entire swaths of people with the same brush.

That would make me happy.
