Pregancy, how you make that racist?

If you are familiar with the lifetime movie “Pregnancy Pact,” then you have a basis of what happened in Gloucester, Massachusetts, basically a bunch of white girls decided to get pregnant at the same time, (not meaning to sound like a bigot, but it will make sense later) at the same school. This kind of reminds me of Northwest high school during my tenure, from 2003-2007, I’m just saying.


I read about this piece and listened to a few news reports a couple years ago, funny thing is the reason on why a bunch of white girls wanted to get pregnant at the same time where idiotic and intellectually immature. Before I explain the suggested reasons for this occurrence of teenage pregnancies of white teens at this school, please think about stereotypes of teen black mothers.


Due to a struggling economy, single parent households, and lack of direction for young women, pregnancy among teens have risen, according to news reporters, which I assume have at least a Master’s degree, or even a Bachelors. Even though I’m laughing while writing this they even blamed it on the media glorifying pregnancy with people like Jamie Lynn Spears (Brittney’s sister) and movies like “Juno”. Is it just me, but are these white middle classes girls given the same excuses that some whites who believe that they are on the hierarchy use to discriminate black folks.


If you are familiar, matter fact if you are black yo ass better be familiar with Tupacs “Brenda’s Gotta Baby” he explains this situation very well. I will give my interoperation on THE THE REMIX, or part 2 of this blog.
