When I lived in rainy Vancouver, BC, I preferred to wear a fedora instead of carry an umbrella because those things are obnoxious in crowded places and I worked downtown.
My mother bought a trilby for my son, and he is so excited about it and wants to wear it EVERYWHERE.
I am so torn between wanting to be happy that he wants to wear dressier clothes (more than just the hat) and being dismayed that he might grow up to become a hipster dudebro. :P
That was great, I always bought the Kennedy thing. My grandfather who never drove always wore a hat, but except for the occasional cowboy hat when square dancing I don't recall my dad ever wearing one.
Oh, I'm sorry, did you need some affirmation that blacks had/have it bad in America? It hasn't been said enough? This photograph by itself wasn't hard-hitting enough? You won't feel like the point's been sufficiently hammered home until Trog says, "Holy fuck, the disparity! The injustice!"?

otoh I hate most of those guys in fedoras (actually it's usually a trilby) or when hipsters wore porkpies.
