The concept of preferential treatment towards Caucasian Americans over African Americans. In instances where a White person would be undoubtedly told "Yes," a Black person would be told "Maybe" or "No."
"They say a White man's yes is a Black maybe..."
-Common on 'Black Maybe' from the album Finding Forever (2007)

A black prep isn't any different than any other "american individual" who dresses in the fashion of Preppy Americana Style. I.E (Ralph Lauren, Brooks Brothers, Martha's Vineyard Clothing, etc) A Black Prep, is just a minority of the American population who dresses in said above fashion, normally in the south, more pastel or bright colors are to be worn, as a male black prep and a southerner, I prefer the above clothing paired with a college fitted baseball cap, or quoddy mocs with no socks.
They don't always have to come from money. But, to afford most of these clothing a steady income form the parents or self is stressed. Also, Prep is more of a upbringing and a combo of some form of monetary gain. Needless to say, you don't have to own thousands of cars/vacation at the "right" spots to be preppy. Preppy is a fashion statement as well as a way of life, but the latter in my opinion is more about "class" how you carry yourself (good moral/social conduct),good finances(no debts/well credit/generous account)manners(important in the South),college degrees or higher education/FULL employment(mostly white collar jobs (but this varies) depending if the earnings are above national average.Modesty is key, never brag about your upbringing.
Girl 1: "Jasmine is cute, oh, she's a black prep, doe's she vacation at Martha's Vineyard like the other kids from "Our Kind of People" the book by Lawrence Otis Graham? LOL
Girl 2: "That's not true, her father works for the Pentagon and her mother is a school teacher. They're not even Jack and Jill, though, they are respected in their community, live in a posh neighborhood and work for every dime, think they are the American dream like most of the U.S in those regards."

Sirius Black is a fictional character in the Harry Potter book series. He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry alongside Harry's mother Lily Evans and father James Potter. He and James became best friends and he was named Harry's godfather.
While at school, he co-created the group The Marauders (see Marauders Map) with James and their friends Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew. Because of Remus's condition (see werewolf), Pettigrew, Black and Potter all learned to turn into animagi; Sirius's form was a large grim-like black dog. Consequently, he was given the nickname Padfoot.
During the first war with Voldemort, Albus Dumbledore figured out that the Dark Lord was after the Potters and knew that someone in their group, the Order of the Phoenix, was a spy. Lupin and Black suspected each other, and it is fair to assume that James trusted his best friend Black over Lupin, as well.
When the Potters went into hiding, James named Black Secret Keeper and told few of this deal. At the last minute, Black, deciding that Voldemort would seek him first and still wary of Lupin, convinced Potter to name Pettigrew Secret Keeper. Pettigrew turned out to be the spy after all and gave over the Potters' whereabouts to Voldemort, leading to their death (see Harry Potter).
Black confronted him about this, enraged. Pettigrew staged a scene, cut off his finger and killed several muggles in an explosion before turning into his animagus form of a rat (see Scabbers) and escaping. Black went to Azkaban for the crimes and did not get out until he escaped right before Harry's Third Year (Prisoner of Azkaban).
Black earned the trust of Lupin, Harry Potter, and Dumbledore after explaining the story to them (they'd not been aware of the switch), but was still at large with the wizarding community. He stayed with Lupin until Dumbledore reformed the Order of the Phoenix at Voldemort's reincarnation. The group's headquarters became Black's old family home (Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place) where he was forced to stay until getting out to rescue Harry at the Department of Mysteries. He was killed by being pushed through a veil at the hands of his cousin and Death Eater Bellatrix Lestrange.
****Sirius's Role in Fanfiction****
Several fanfiction writers prefer to put Harry Potter characters together in obscure pairings. One of the most popular is Sirius Black/Remus Lupin. While many are convinced of this couple's authenticity, nothing in the books actually supports it (canon) besides the fact that the two men spent a lot of time together. In fact, Sirius is painted as a womanizer, and in Half-Blood Prince it is implied that Lupin has started a romantic relationship with a young female Auror and cousin of Black's, Nymphadora Tonks. JK Rowling has never confirmed any romantic relationship between Black/Lupin and described their hug in Prisoner of Azkaban as "brotherly." (People argue that that is not relevant evidence; Harry's point of view is not omniscient.)
That aside, I believe that the great thing about the books is how the different relationships can be interpreted, so get as slashy as you want, don't bother me none. But, yeah. He's dead. -cough-
"You killed my parents," said Harry, his voice shaking slightly but his wand quite steady.
Black stared up at him out of those sunken eyes.
"I don’t deny it," he said very quietly. "But if you knew the whole story..."

A form of comedy in which serious issues such as cannibalism, rape, genocide, terminal illnesses, etc. are treated humorously. Often more disturbing than funny.
Black Comedy is not a racial or urban issue. It is a genre of comedy.
