Generally, black people respond to the beat. Not all of them. But most I have ever known. Is it an African thang? Could be. But I think it has more to do with the love of dancing. Soul Train was not just a coincidence. The show became a hit because not only did the young people on there love dancing and became experts at it, but the country fell in love with watching themn as well. And it was the bass beat of the music played that made it all possible. Not the philosphically intellectual story the songs told. Nothing wrong with that.

Can we all just get along? If not, and youre one of those conforming politically correct whiners who got offended, thinking this post was stereotypical, well there are plenty of other blogs to click over to...
