... does it really matter what WE think?

anyway, look at D.H. Peligro, look at the Bad Brains. the ability to be yourself isn't limitted to any race or color.

Obviously no. I am sorry to tell you that a black chick cannot be punk for to be punk you have to weigh 150 pds, 1m68 or more high, blond and short hair, wearing a white and red t-shirt and get your official punker card at the Punk Office of California. You know, there are rules here.

By the way Michael Jackson also wanted to be white, now that he is I think he's 110% Punk!

"Punk's the people's music and I don't care where they're from
Black or white, punk or skin, there ain't no right or wrong
We're all just human beings, some of us rotten, some of us good
You can stuff your false divisions 'cos together I know we could
Beat the system, beat its rule
Ain't got no class, I ain't a fool
Beat the system, beat its law
Ain't got no religion 'cos I know there's more
Beat the system, beat its game
Ain't got no colour, we're all the same
People, people, not colour, class or creed
Don't destroy the people, destroy their power and their greed."
