[QUOTE="Flipx99, post: 2130045, member: 562352"] I don't think of it like that. I think of it as someone who experienced neglect and oppression by others. For instance, I don't sag, wear my hat backwards, or talk with slang. I wear and shirt and tie. I am white. I go into a jewlrey store to buy things and no one helps me. There are people there, but they don't help me. I try and go to expensive resturants and they don't ask me if I would like to eat, they tell me they are not hiring. Because I don't drive a nice car, valets won't park my car at nice hotels...they tell me to pull around that they don't need to park my car. My parents spent so much of thier life working, they weren't around which is almost as bad as them not being there at all except I never went without (which is something I am thankful for). See this oppression...I don't know why I recieve it, makes me feel bad. 'Pac was able to communicate similar oppression, similar things happening in life.
