Ghetto, thug culture is trash, no matter the race.
Classical Western culture is spirit. Again, no matter the race.
In not saying everyone needs to read Boccaccio, Origine, Seneca, John Bunyan or listen to medieval catanas (a man can dream, though). More that people should focus on and go towards and expand upon the nearest, best defined source of light and spirit that their culture offers. If it's primative and made of emu dung and strae, fix it up and be the change. Don't let people tell you, within reason (sometimes, there is a grubby, Lowbrow sort of wisdom in the crowd and if everyone is warning you away from something there might very well be good reason to avoid it but generally speaking don't let people less intelligent than you determine), what kind of Christian/pagan/thinker/scenester you "can" and "can't" be!
