What is the White Mainstream?

To me to identify certain cultural norms and values is basically to be raised up by a middle class family. When you are raised as a middle class citizen you then get to see the ups and downs of life and are able to adjust to daily situations like that. If you have lived upper class all your life and never really felt the downs of life, or the feelings of being broke and etc, many can't adjust to living a certain way for awhile and being able to bounce back. The world is basically a white world, the white man I feel is the people that have set the standards for the way life is today, what shouldn't and should be done is really the standards they have set for everyone else. Me as being black I feel I am just living in their world and just have to play the game to get to the top and get where I want to be. Values stop being white when you either over come certain norms or either under achieve them, and they stop being middle class and or western when you start to do things outside of the box, and making your own choices and going out on a limb to succeed.
