Black People and National Parks

Yep, Q - it's all relative. And yep, Von et. al - it's different depending on different people. What tends to make things a "majority" is where the majority lives. If you have a larger population group that tends to be part of the inner city, you'll have a lifestyle and belief system that reflects that.

As for playing in the fountain, Shai, that's probably normal because it's something you do in the city, too. And I learned how to swim when I was younger, but I still don't really like swimming (but that's me and it's due to a few near death experiences swimming).

When I speak, I'm talking from my own experiences and from the stories I hear. I'm not afraid of animals - although, you might find many folks afraid of dogs (because again, dogs used to chase down slaves).

But despite all of that, remember: We're all individuals. Don't assume that because one makes a statement that it applies to all.
 
Fear of dogs is a cultural thing. Some people in the Middle East are afraid of dogs apparently.
