If ever I thought myself objective and unbiased, the George Zimmerman trial is definitely not that moment.
So let's cut to the chase. Any attorney, jury member, judge or white person in that courtroom is not going to understand Rachel Jeantel. And I don't expect them to.
In fact, I certainly, like my fellow writer Rachel Samara, understand why white people wouldn't like Rachel.
She's hard. She's black. And your assumptions about her background and lack of education make you feel like you are better, somehow. That her testimony, no matter how powerful and impactful it may be to this trial, is implausible. Weak, maybe? Let's impeach her.
But maybe the reason white people don't understand Rachel Jeantel has something more to do with white privilege then, what they would call, Rachel's capricious nature.
Let's for one second try to understand why Rachel is "angry" (read emotional), "hood" (read blunt), and "unintelligent" (read multilingual).
The thing is, what white people see in Rachel has little to do about her own issues, and more to say about the America that white people are blind to. Let's take her testimony on not calling the police, for example.

In other words, Christina Coleman admit she's racist. In other words, "KILL WHITEY!!!"
“What’s sad is how many of the comments under the article are from white women who are easily swayed by emotional rhetoric.”
That’s where it all started to come apart for the U.S.of A.....but i’m a neanderthal...what do i know?
The thing REALLY is, what White America sees in yet one more black apologist is the usual racist bias which support of perjury, willful ignorance, black entitlement, and hatred of Whitey.
Pure, unadulterated BULLSHIT!
I guess "BEING UNINTELLIGENT" is to NOW be fully accepted if you want to be "politically correct" and NOT a racist.
The left is LIBERAL LUNACY in motion.
People like me are sick to death of your ridiculous excuses for your kind's own prevailing failures. Quit blaming everyone but yourselves.... That dog don't hunt anymore.
Christina's not practicing white self hatred.... she's a sista'
I are a creepy a$$ cracker and proud of it!
