Saying that poor blacks in LA are from the south is because of the way they talk is such a stereotype. It has been 3 generations (60 years) since we've had a large influx of the south. My wife and b-i-l neither have any of their parent's, well, my b-i-l does say bafroom, and my wife says warsh, but neither my kids or nephews say either. One d-i-l has some southern inflections, but they are South American, and it's more of a second language thing :D)
