There is a real correlation between incomes and ethnicity as Im sure you know. Dont try and make this into something it isnt either.
as for OJ's friends, no I didnt know all of them. I know he stayed friends with Al, who was black, and Im sure he had other black friends. but I maintain that OJ was making a definite choice to cross cultural lines in order to rise up the ladder of society.

Again, so any black person who wants to live in Brentwood is a sell out - I am rather taken aback because that implies or supposes that the desire to move to Brentwood is a horrible thing to do. Certainly other black people live there.
Also, I think he married her because she was a hot piece of a$$ - - I mean I have read nothing to suggest she was socially prominent before she married him.
