As an ebony provider on the west coast, I experience racism more often than not. I have been treated differently and even called the n word at least once a week. Honestly, it doesn't really bother me anymore. Most of the people that say such hateful things are either intimidated by me or curious about a culture the don't understand, or that type of ignorance had been instilled from a young age.  
   
 Either way, I would like to address a few things in regard to such moronic ways of thinking...  
 1) NOT ALL BLACK PROVIDERS STEAL. that is serious b.s. in my opinion a thief is a lazy coward. I would rather ask and convince someone to GIVE me what I want. I have far more confidence in my persuasive techniques. And I make enough to buy what I want...  
 2) NOT ALL BLACK PROVIDERS HAVE PIMPS! I am a self made woman. I do everything on my own and for myself.  
 3)Speaking only for myself, I have class, and I am educated. I take pride in my appearance and I am far from ghetto.  
   
  however I am a no nonsense type of woman, and I don't have to yell and act ignorant or cause a scene to get my point across.  
   
 With that being said, before you pass judgement on a person, perhaps you should gain some insight 1st. I am a very versatile person. I like everything from 2pac to pink Floyd, basketball to golf. I can blend with just about any ethnicity, but I won't associate myself with ignorance. Lastly, the point I am making is, YOU CAN'T PRAISE OR FAULT A PERSON FOR SOMETHING THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OF!!! I didn't make a choice to be this shade of brown sugar coated honey roasted almond....(but I wouldn't have it any other way lol)  
   
 get to know a person before you put them in a box of any kind. stereo types don't apply to everyone.
