First of all- there really is no set way people should act. Some people have different lifestyles. I mean, I know PLENTY of white people that curse a lot, and are very mean. I also know PLENTY of african american people that have great jobs, are nice, and get good grades. And what african americans don't speak english? If they don't, they are probably some other race (i.e. Jamaican).
It all just depends on how people are raised, and what they are exposed to. I guess african american people generally don't succeed as well in your eyes.
Black people should not be expected to not succeed as well, and not like the things you listed above. African americans are just like everyone else. They do not act "white". The correct term is that they succeed well.
Now, this doesn't mean that white people act "black" and don't succeed well. White and black people both can not succeed in the same ways.
So, to answer your question, Why do blacks act White- I tell you this: Black AND white people like to succeed well. What is wrong with people wanting to suceed. Are you saying that there is something wrong with black people acting "good"? There are nothing wrong with the qualities that you listed. They are just living their life. (Note- This does not mean that acting "black" means not succeeding. I am not racist.)

First of all I don't think that is a racist comment. To answer your question I don't believe the examples that you have listed are correct ones. First of all you have to be more clear in the way that you define acting white. Speaking proper english does not mean that you are acting white it just means that you are educated whether that be formally or informally. In order to get a job you have to be able to conduct yourself in a manner that shows that you are serious about the work. You don't have to act white in order to go to school, anyone can it all depends on the individual and what they want to get out of it. By not swearing as often you are just showing that your vocabulary is not limited, your able to get your point across in away that will not offend people, if that's what you want to do. And finally being polite is something that is hard, I'm black and because of this people assume that I am unable to do all of the above, sometimes being polite means just holding your tongue because if you don't that just proves what everyone else thinks of you.

What do you call acting White ? Blacks speak English if they are from a country that speak English , have jobs, how else how they suppose to pay their bills and i prefer to have a career ,going to school helps in the career department i do not curse as much but i think you dumb racist piece of white trash *** need to STFU because you haven't meet every single last black, brown and yellow people in this world until you do keep your stupid ideas to your self
People act however they want i like nice things, i want to have nice things and not end up in jail or a statistic what the **** is wrong with that ?
There is no acting black or white, people make choices in life to become either successful or ignorant i think you decided to be ignorant .
White trash, sorry *** excuse for a man , little dick having , white monkey looking pink *** stink *** bastard >>>

First of all what should we speak? Swahili? This is the United States and guess what the official language happens to be English. Getting jobs? Do you really think that all black people should just be hobos? Going to school? I'll have you know that I go to the best private school in my city and get straight As. Ha. I cuss sooo much. You're lucky I'm censoring this because I don't want to get kicked off yahoo answers. Being polite! Black people are always polite to their elders! Have you ever seen a little black boy mouth off to his gradma? NO! I am so sick and tired of dealing with idiots like you who are so racist they won't wear black pants! I straighten my hair every day, listen to metal and emo and punk, wear skinny jeans, and wear tons of eyeliner and mascara. Is that "acting white" NO! I'm being me. My personality, my likes, my dislikes and my attitude has NOTHING to do with the fact that I'm black. And my education, career, language and politeness doesn't have anything to do with it either. [explative] you!

Um......i'm black and i do exactly all the things that you listed above........ I rarely curse, talk very politely, getting ready for my future(jobs), i always go to school, and recieve good grades, and i always speak english and never that street talk or whatever it is. I get teased at sometimes bcuz of that and so does my sister. I'm even sometimes called an "oreo" or i must be mixed with another race as well. (the way i talk and my long hair too). But i'm not ashamed of myself. I'm proud of who i am becuse i'm a young lady not some ghetto girl or whatever.
So i wonder.....what's a black person? How does a REAL black person talk like or act like? I've always wanted to know. If it means to be getting arrested all the time, cursing, using the "n" word(very bad word!!!!), talking that street talk, into the rap some much, live in the ghetto, talks so loud or etc. Well i'm defiantly none of that and never will be. Am I considered in your case "white"? I would like to know.
Please excuse me for my grammar! Thank you! (^_^)

i admire black people; the two women and men persons. i do no longer care what some out of hundreds of thousands have pronounced or carried out, I nevertheless like black men. lots hate is undesirable. With lots hate on your coronary heart, how can any love get by? possibly the black men around you have a clarification for mistreating you. perchance you're gruesome to be around. all and sundry's different. so which you will desire to no longer decide prepared on what some have carried out. And Jeyda, you're some distance too lovable to be so hateful. that is sparkling you have some esteem themes and you experience inferior. perchance you will desire to look for scientific care. Take the different black men haters with you.
