What is acting Black?

As defined in the Urban dictionary, Cooning is a verb derived from the word coon.  A coon was/is a person of African decent whose sole purpose was/is to entertain white people.  These 'coons' started out as wearing black face, characterised by rolling big eyes and painting big red lips on their face.  These people would tap dance, play instruments and sing.  Modern day coons are blacks who play stereotypical roles and black entertainers that promote ignorance.  Cooning is someone is acting like a 'coon'.  It appears that the term originated from African-Americans being called "coons" rather than "niggers" or other more offensive slang.  Many people with a superiority complex like to consider all African-Americans to be thieves, hence the term, "someone cooned my wallet or my house got cooned last night".  

These are man made concepts from pagan understanding because God in not partial to race or gender according to Acts 10:35 from the New International Version (NIV), but 'accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right'.  Not all professed Christians practice these concepts either.  Also found in piece about music from the essay forum, 'we can gain different knowledge from music.  Although a piece of music could be very short, it may actually contains many elements.  

Because when we listen to music, we do not just listen to its beautiful rhythm.  We can read something in at the same time because different music has its different background, different culture and different stories'.  

Personally, I am still learning about the beauty of music and enjoy many forms.
