Oh and one more thing: What does it mean to "look white?" Wearing a cowboy hat? Listening to Johnny Cash? Going hunting? I kid, (obviously being white does not mean you do any of these things) but I think that this whole idea of looking white or acting white (which you equated with dressing well), is another really destructive idea that goes hand in hand with the articles discussion of blacks (and it should be noted all other minorities, and even one majority-women) having to be 'twice as good' to prove themselves. I would maintain that the way one dresses, talks or acts has far less to do with their race or gender, and far more to do with the economic and educational opportunities and advantages that they have received. Speaking well and dressing sharply are not exclusive to being white; (one does not do these things because they are white) therefore you can't equate such things to 'acting white', which in and of itself is also a destructive term, in my opinion, for whites as well, because it seeks to relegate certain characteristics as attributes of their skin color. A POC/woman does not speak well because they are trying to "act white" they speak well because they are well educated. Are white people maybe more likely to possess such attributes? Sure--> but it is not something inherent to their whiteness by any means.
