When black and brown girls are videotaped beating each other down, the blame game quickly starts. It happened when video of a fight at a Brooklyn McDonaldโs went viral. Everyone joins in to accuse and shame: Whatโs wrong with these girls? Where are their parents? Itโs all the Hip Hop and Atlanta housewives foolishness. Vile words condemn their character and culture, and they are ridiculed as beasts and something less than human. Some take a hands-off โthose are not my kidsโ approach, while others gear up to sound alarms, alarms that have been ringing for too long.
