Unwritten Rules 11-15

  • Sumário

  • Michelle and Rochelle unpack ever single unwritten rule from the viral Buzzfeed article "Black People Are Sharing The Unwritten Rules They Follow That Most White People Are Clueless About, And It's Eye-Opening." Found both on Buzzfeed and MSN (we are reading from the MSN Article). We unpack rules 11-15 in this episode with lots of personal stories and advice and our personal views.  Join these two friends as we go over some explosive topics.

    11."Something I know I have to be careful of in public (as a person mixed with white and Black) is remembering which parent I'm with and how to act. This is called code-switching. I have to make sure I act okay so I'm not labelled as 'ghetto' with my mom or 'white-washed' with my dad."

    12."No matter how cold or windy it is, my hood stays off, and my earbuds/headphones stay off my ears."

    13."As a Black man who loves hip-hop, I often have to censor the music that I listen to so I won't be judged as a 'thug.'"

    14."As a Black man, if there is a white woman in line, you stand back far enough so you cannot touch her by mistake or be accused of touching her."

    15."Knowing that I’ll be followed when shopping in high-end stores, I have product-related questions prepared for when they invariably ask me if I need assistance. Replying with 'No thank you, I’m just browsing' makes their suspicion jump, and suddenly, I have an unofficial entourage. I’m a college-educated Black man about to turn 40, but I still have to play these sorts of silly games. It can be very exhausting."
