Minority Report

At least the people who are too young to know better stick are sticking with Vick through his crisis

• Black teens love them some Michael Vick, dog fighting and all. [ET]

• Environmental racism could be going on right under your nose. Literally. [LW]

• Minorities, young people, hip hop, and the internet — a recipe for profit. [BW]

• T.I. sincerely looks forward to being exonerated. He said so himself. [AP]

• LL Cool J is still pouting about Def Jam. [EUR]

Okay, I know that this might come with a "who are you to tell me how to do things" stare but could you somehow make it so that when I click on a link that you've provided that it opens another page because I always have to come back here to click on the next link…am I asking for too much? Is there some way I can do this myself? Just wondering…love the site.

lj, you can just left click and open in a new tab if you're using Firefox or change your settings so it opens in a new tab automatically. If you're using IE aka the Firefox Installation Program, I'm not really sure what to tell you. How is it over there in the dark ages?

"Black teens love them some Michael Vick, dog fighting and all."

That's b/c he's a role model for black teens. Our culture seems to, many times, have no problem with our young people looking up to celebs and athletes when they should be looking up to doctors, dentists, professors, etc.

Whatever happened to looking up to your damn parents? When I was 12, I guess I wanted to be able to sing and dance like T-Boz but I wasn't trying to be her. I had it all worked out. I wanted to be a obstetrician. Seeing child birth changed that pretty quickly. It was then psychiatrist then pediatrician than nutritionist (which I'm still considering kind of) then psychologist then plastic surgeon then dentist then at 21, I wasn't sure. No wonder I'm still job hunting with my overpriced degrees
