“Black folks,in the main,have a loud confrontational style.”
I learned that growing up in NYC so I understand that all the bluster and posturing doesn’t mean anything. White people from small towns and even southern blacks think a rumble is about to start so they begin moving toward the exits. I dont think Americans will appreciate a first lady who talks like Mr T.
A lot of it is just”woofing”,done to get a reaction.I get this at my schools occasionally.A black(and more and more often lately an Asian or Mexican)kid will get up in my face and try to go for bad.I simply stand my ground and say something like,”is everything OK with you?”and stay calm.They always back down cause they know I refuse to show fear.
Michelle will need some etiquette classes if Barak is elected.The Bad Soul Sister act will go over like a lead balloon in formal White House settings.
