This guy actually just blew my mind with the StopHop comment - I really had no idea and feel I should've heard or read something about it.
This resonates with me but was too open-ended. It really is just a social problem stemming from different sets of socio-economic priorities and values. I was the kid who would get in trouble for taking apart the vcr, but generally my parents encouraged me to experiment with whatever held my interests. I realize, however, that that wasn't the case for other black kids from the major-metropolitan area.
