This Book was written in a funny manner to not only touch upon some old school ways but to also make us laugh, cry, and think about how some of the things we do impact kids, family, friends, neighbors, and society in general. Some stuff is made up and some stuff is just based upon what I have seen over the years. This book doesn't target any race because all races can be Ghetto. For Ghetto is not about Colors, Black, White, or Pink, but about how you act, how you live, and how you think. This book is not meant to disrespect anyone, it is just meant for laughs and to make you think so if I offend anyone please accept my apologies.
