Since when did being poor and living in the ghetto have a race?
(Speaking as a white girl who grew up in the projects)
It's ridiculous how uptight the Etsy forums have gotten. If you have to put a disclaimer that you're "usually not a stick in the mud" maybe you should ignore the thread.
P.S. In the Etsy forums it's more like several two by fours in the mud than sticks lately.
Ghettos are groups of one particular ethnic group together. Think "good times" In the continental US, ghetto is a term that usually describes black neighborhoods. The "names" and speech in the thread were stereotypically black.
I'm black, and I was offended by the thread, and I'm glad to see that it was shut.
