>>2876523It's going to take a lot more than a few black anons to change that stereotype
Especially when plastered all over the media is ghetto culture and all the crap it brings, mainstream hip-hop/rap is populated mainly by stupid apes like Waka Flocka and Soulja Boy.
People like you, and your father, are a minority, add in that you're black and you become a minority in a minority. Additionally, you'd be considered normal by the media and, therefore, uninteresting, how much Will Smith do you see these days in the media? Unless you do something mad like become PotUS (which has already been done) or cure cancer or something the media won't care
Nonetheless there is the possibility of the stereotype dying out, probably not in our lifetimes though
This is not to say that no one should try to change the stereotype, more that changing the stereotype or being black or any other minority shouldn't be the focal point of gaining a high level of education/training; bettering oneself should
Where did the watermelon part of the stereotype come from? It doesn't seem to exist in the UK...
