white rappers really exist in the Midwest. one of me and my homies favorite rappers growing up was this dude named TheLastWordbender. he is still mad cool. works at a middle school now. im glad you liked the piece.
i grew up with this white dude named Ed who grew up in area that was much more hood than me. Went to high school together. He said nigga among the young niggaz and didn’t have any white friends ar the school we went to. He didn’t rap and grew up to marry a Black woman from Detroit?
What is the point of that flash nonfiction? Different shit is real and happens even if we don’t write about it. not saying it’s “normal,” but what is…
i got another friend white chick who grew up in a near suburb of detroit , another “mixed enviro” and she told me that she had way more Black friends before she got “politicized” and took anti racism courses. you know how it goes Luke….
my first rap partner ever was a white guy naned MC Escher.
i enjoyed the John Brown, the characters and their relationships and the dancing… Can there ever be another Boogie is a great q?

dude, yeah, this story is reality to me. it happened somewhere…the distinction between reality and dreams is increasingly narrow.
