I mean, what's the sociological benchmark that shows us when an Negro's no longer "acting black" but switches on "acting white"?

That's what I was asking as well...

Personally, I just expect people to act civilized and show some manners. If that's "acting white", then so be it.

But were probably mixing racial stereotypes with those of class, low class vs high class. And unfortunately, many of those who show extremely low class or culture, are so insecure that they must make racial assertions about anyone who DOES show class.
