[quote=Anonymous]I'm Black and I live in a gentrifying area of NW DC. My DH and I are law school graduates and we are in the top 10% of earners in the country. That said, we see this behavior all the time (cursing, hitting, yelling, shaming, degrading, etc...) and it disgusts us and once my DH stayed really close to a mom and her kids in case he had to intervene and call the police. It is a serious issue among the poor and uneducated (read: ignorant). I feel very sorry for the kids as it perpetuates the cycle of violence and ignorance in certain communities. When we lived in NY, we saw the same behavior in the Black and Hispanic communities. When we lived in TN, we saw the same behavior in the Black and white communities. DC just happens to be predominately Black so you will see it more from Black moms. I don't know when you DCUM race baiters will ever get that it is a socio economic issue based on location.[/quote]
