    It's a spectacle in all neighborhoods. I'm part black and part american indian.....the white kids at my school outdid the black people. That's a sad generalization.

    It's a spectacle in all neighborhoods.

    I have a suspicion you saw some 'ghetto prom pics' on the internet and assume all black people act that way.

    Sorry, you're still being racist. It's like that in all neighborhoods. It's not like white people's proms involve sipping tea and playing croquet..... They're ALL spectacles.

    sorry, but its a spectacle in ALL cultures. dare i say that white kids typically spend more on prom than most Black kids do. and for the record, when it comes to celebrating and REALLY knowing how to party, its in our blood. that's why yall always want us at your parties lol.

  • i had to look in my dictionary for the word spectacle lol. i live in a black neighborhood i guess and prom is wack. im guessing u just watched that movie with the segregated prom or something. well i went to prom like a month ago and i took a white girl with me and she was havin a blast while the black girls was like "hmm... this is iight i guess"
