This is exactly some chicken-headed nonsense and an abdication of guardianship within black communities. Said abdication has resulted in a great number of social ills, but then you'd have to be actively engaged with poor black kids on the regular to know or care about that one way or another. Rationalize your own choices as you see fit, but don't peddle your own post hoc rationale as if it were a principled defense of free expression or personal responsibility applicable to other people's children. http://www.rand.org/labor/adp_pdfs/adp_ajph.pdf Myspace is targetted toward a juvenile demographic. I'm not advocating censorship, but I am advocating activist criticism of the non-constructive illness that is myspace.com. Uncritical acceptance and commercial exploitation of cultural garbage is just wrongheaded and irresponsible.
