did u even read the article??
The whole article was based on the premise that hip-hop is promoting pit-bulls as mean, harsh, fighting dogs and that the UKC says the exact opposite about the breed. It is saying that Black people are into dog fighting because hip-hop is promoting it and influencing it. So they are saying that michael vick is black.
“It’s all tied into the hip hop culture, the image and projection of a dog as an extension of your manhood,” she says.
“Hip-hop culture put Vick in this bind,” declared the headline on a recent column in The Kansas City Star. Staff columnist Jason Whitlock, who is black, said he hoped Vick’s troubles would “serve as yet another wakeup call for black athletes to reject the hip-hop/prison culture that glorifies much of the negative behavior and attitude that has eroded the once-dignified and positive reputation of black athletes.”
they mentioned that he was black too. AND, that he hopes this will serve as a wake-up call.
They didnt just toss in that he was black for no reason, it actually pertains to the article.
