I honestly have rarely cared about any body's opinion of me or my fam except other Latinos, Dominicans in particular. I don't even know any white people. shyt, black people's opinion has even had more importance to me than whites since I grew up with other blacks.
If ya just want to rise why spend so much time on things that weigh u down mentally? From my perspective and judging just on the coli community, ya have only been getting more and more hostile and angry the more ya discuss these things. When I first came here it was all laughs all the time and now it's just bitterness and anger and finger pointing and gender wars and c00n this and c00n that. I don't see how u rise like that.
