"Slang" isn't black? Well, it isn't unless it's black slang.
There is really no such thing as “black slang” because, as I have demonstrated, the language belongs to no one. It is public domain.
French slang, for example, isn't black, unless it's a mixed patois of some sort.
This is obviously ridiculous, the result of a sincerely closed and racist mind. Listen to yourself. You are actually claiming that a racial partition exists between people and language. That’s just dumb. Any normal human, regardless of his feature set, can embrace French slang as his own toy, to be enjoyed as he can enjoy it.
And black slang isn't necessary racist, but is erely slang -- unless it's used in a mocking, racist manner.
Even this is false because you haven’t the wherewithal to recognize true racism even in yourself. Dear me. You actually look upon people of a different “race” and then assume that certain sounds are innately attached to them. You just assume this, when in fact they may embrace “perfect” English as a native language. You really are racist, E.
See examples of racist slang below.
It is racist to you because you are bringing your own racism to it. You cannot empty your mind of your own racist misconceptions to see the joy inherent in the words. Check it out, sistah. Dis mess be too dang cool! I ain’ be MOCKIN’ no dang body, leest not cuza no dang RAYSE mess. If anything, ah be mockin’ stoopid fokes yoosing dis language to obscure (lak dat big wurd) mess dat uhm sayin’ against ‘em. I jess LOVE to mock raysis leftists who be thankin dey so dang open-minded and de dang fact is, dey be raysis!
You have just been outed, sir. No loving father of a black child would have written those racist posts mocking the language-culture of so many people who have black "feature sets," not in a million years.
A truly loving father would do exactly as I have done. This is where you and Poet have it all wrong. With you true racists, everything, even including language, is “us” against “them.” With you it is “ours” and “theirs.” You think only in terms of “we” and “they.” Contrariwise, with a loving father, it is only just “us.” Dass it!
If you do indeed have a black son, I pity him, because you don't love him.
Think as you must. I tell you the truth: the reason Poet’s kid has suffered so much on losing “her people” is because Poet failed to give her a people. She suffered unspoken racism in her own family. All that kid needed to know was that she was irrevocably attached to her mom, dad, brothers, sisters, grandparents, in a way that no feature set could ever attach her. She needed to see that in her mother’s heart there is no such thing as “black” and “white” language, no such thing as “your” people and “my” people, that the stuff belongs to both. BOTH people should crawl into the same space together, to enjoy it together, as a gift for both. You do that consistently, in freedom, and watch the confidence grow. I have seen it for myself.
I am free to speak and truly enjoy slang because to me, it is just language. I use it to push back into its cultural roots. I was actually taught the stuff by blacks, over a very long period of time. And you kin see dat mess too! I mean, dang. My slang, if you would jess take a close look at it, ain’ like a lotta slang crap you be seein’ fom whites. I mean, sure, I could always be makin’ dat mess betta; but it still be some tight mess! My stuff be real. You no why? Cuz I’m real – unlike you.
I knew yesterday that you were a liar on the abortion issue, and Poet has just proved it on this one.
You only see this “proof” because you are too afraid to see the truth. You know I am exactly correct on both issues – and it makes you sick. Be sick, E. |
