Only Black Baby Boomers Will Understand: Cultural Practices and Traditions from the Black Community (1960s-1970s) These are twenty-five cultural practices from the Black community in the 1960s and 1970s that shaped how love, respect, and family worked in ways that today's generation would find completely foreign.
