Hierarchy of oppression? I don't remember trying to tell everyone that class trumps race all the time everywhere. Common consensus seems to be that everyone has a claim to hiphop, just in different ways, and I was simply tryin to put forth how I most identify with hiphop - what it says to me most of the time. I can see the other sides, but for me they just don't speak as loud.

Peace
