As a Clemson student, I really dont understand why people are so upset about an off-campus party at someone's private apartment where white kids dressed up as gangstas and wore "ice" and fake gold teeth. If you ask me they were just degrading themselves by dressing like that and acting uneducated.
Why are blacks so quick to claim this "culture" if you can call it that, as their own? And why is the media not showing the other side of Clemson, where blacks throw exclusively black parties? There were even blacks there at the "gangsta" party...
What do you all think of this issue?

Is it really a big deal that white students had a "gansta" party?
I guess since a lot of blacks have been criticized for being "gangsta" and how blacks are already stereotyped as gangstas. And then i guess if white kids do it it's kinda like blackface when whites dressed up and did "stereotypical" black things. It's a lot deeper than what you think. A lot of white people don't understand how it is to be black and they always feel blacks are complaining but i wish white people could switch races for a day and feel the feeling.
