The media is finding much wisdom and intelligence in Jeantel, if she were a white southern male sounding this incredibly stupid and racist, I cringe to think of the way the media would be describing him and his state, his race, and region of birth.

Makes me think of Minstrel Shows, where white people would dress up in blackface and mock the "stupidity" of black people.

They are no longer around (thankfully) because they are really offensive.

Ms. Jeantel is like a living, breathing 2013 minstrel show, and black people are APPLAUDING her.

You're right, if this were a white person saying stupid crap like this, I would SWEAR it was a put on.
