Type in Free Republic, someone complained about a Viking Kitty attack. LOL!
Dat be cool.
That, of course, is the real message disquised..
Isn't that their goal?
I wouldn't really consider San Berdoo the "inner city". There are more trailer parks than their are housing projects. And the white trash exists in equal number to blacks.
I think they just aren't real bright there in general.
Why not "appalachionics" in West Virginia?
ROTFLMAO!!!
That's for sure. Take this statement:
"She said a child's self confidence is tied to his or her cultural identity." [Texeira said]
Those of us who have had the good blessing of great parents know that a child's confidence comes from the self-esteem and discipline encouraged and learned at home. Not "culture".
These people have missed the problem even though its cause is getting on the bus with them. What the Kennedy-Johnson Administration did for the good of black Americans with the Civil Rights Act of 1964, they took away with the Immigration Act of 1965. Blacks will be speaking Spanglish long before they will have a chance to learn American English.
You have made an excellent point that few people seem to have noticed. Many young black workers come across as sullen and hostile, but I have always felt that a lot of them are embarrassed and defensive. They know that they are hard to understand, they know that they come across as stupid to many of the customers, and they must realize that they are trapped in a world that is different from the world inhabited by their customers (black or white or Hispanic).
It's very sad, because of course their public image - which comes across as hostile and not exactly customer friendly - keeps them from making even that little personal effort that might have enabled them to jump over the years of lousy, separatist "education" they have received.
Heck, people can come here from Afghanistan (I'm thinking of some hot-dog vendors in NYC) without a word of English, and end up with a huge clientele that comes to their particular little hot-dog stand simply because they smile, if you're a regular, they know what you want on your dog before you even ask - and, of course, they're busy taking English lessons at night and dreaming of the day when they own their own little grocery store. These poor kids, on the other hand, are so sunk to the bottom that they can't even imagine fitting in or ever having a future.
Are they going to translate the Constitution of the United States in Ebonics? Will out voter's ballots now be in Ebonics, too, besides Spanish, Korean, Vietnamese, etc.?
"There is a place called CUBA..........."
Don't forget liberia, where they can be free from white oppression.
That is so funny! still laughing. :)
I don't even think it's real.
