Sounding street is derivative of black culture and no it does not mean that black people have only one way of sounding so I have no idea how you came up with that. Sounding black means that you speak in a way that derives from black culture and there's many different ways that black people speak. Street is one of them as it derives from hip hop culture....therefore he sounds black.

@hunterjordan4327 Жыл бұрын
Are you sure about that? Have you walked in another persons shoes. Imagine someone who grew up to be an innocent poor White conservative patriotic Christian 🇺🇸 American. But he comes from a broken liberal and secular non religious unpatriotic home in a predominately Black and Latino neighborhood. He’s pretty much raising himself because his mother is an addict and his abusive father is not around. And he has values and grew up around these people, and he always tried to be nice but they took his kindness for weakness and they pushed him around or insulted him and mocked him and laughed at him and what not. Even the what he thought were the decent Blacks or decent Mexicans he thought were his friend, went behind his back and cheated with his first ever Puerto Rican girlfriend that he fell in love with. Because they are street people and he’s unfortunately a good man growing up in an ignorant and immoral neighborhood where honor and integrity and goodness are not valued. And then he sees and experiences all this affliction and betrayal, and he comes to the educated conclusion that he knows there has to be some that are decent church going family oriented Black and Latino people, but not in the environment he grew up. But for the most part, the stereotypical racism and general consensus about Blacks and Hispanics are true, and he becomes a racist himself after all the disrespect he has endured from these ethnic groups being the extreme minority in his environment. Not that he hates them and wishes they all died, but he just rather not have anything to do with them, and would never trust to have a friendship with any Black or Latino guys, or have any romantic relationship with a Black or Latina woman, because all he saw was toxic and ghetto ignorant and ungodly behavior, even from so called professed Christians. Huh? What do you got to say about the White guy in America that has experienced that. Say what you want about White peoples being racist, but I don’t think they will befriend a Black or Hispanic person, to just use them or sleep with their wife or girlfriend. White people are at least straight up about those type of things and generally speaking do not tolerate lying or cheating or stealing in their community. So yeah, sometimes racism comes from experience, and not from being taught.

Yes!!! Thank you Paul Wall! There is so much racism in other parts of the country where you wouldn't expect! My husband is Mexican, and I'm white. We moved from California (where we lived all our life) to Wisconsin, so I could get my PhD. People would constantly stare, talk s**t under their breath, and point at us. If you look around the Milwaukee area, you'll see how how it's still very segregated too. After I graduated, we packed up and went back home to Cali. Never ever will I move there again!

Houston(where I live) is not some small back water town in the middle of Alabama or Mississippi, it's a city that's more than likely more diverse than wherever you stay. It's not anymore racist than any other place and a strong argument can be made that it's one of the least racist cities in the country.
