It's an interesting tag, this #ThingsBlackPeopleDo
Mostly invoked by (if pictures are indicators) primary by black  
individuals.
Some evocative, some ironic racism, some culturally self-referential.

Any thoughts on this current organic real-time global conversation?  
Part of some of whole, yet individualistic.
Where's Barry, would love to hear his thoughts on this.
