I cannot count how many times SC white girls spoke in a ghetto accent


What do you mean by ghetto accent?

I'm assuming you're referring to the way you think all black people sound, so I'll reply accordingly. in the rural south from NC across the "black belt" all the way to east tx, black and white people tend to sound a lot alike because they live so close to each other. As opposed to in yankeedom where you live in separate towns. So your "ghetto accent" is really just a deep southern accent which sounds pretty similar regardless or the color of user.

Fwiw, baw, I lived in North Carolina when I was in college (Greenville - East Carolina University) and my brother currently lives in Greenville, South Carolina. No need to lecture me, baw. I'm very familiar with the south, baw.

You can try to peg me as racist by pointing to my "ghetto" comment, but I'm not falling for that uneducated bait...baw.

Fact is, some blacks and whites choose to speak with an uneducated ghetto accent, a celebration of mediocrity and victimization. Hip hop doesn't help.

Some blacks and whites choose a different path, one focused on education, self improvement, and career goals. It's amazing how you rarely see blacks or whites on this path speaking with a ghetto accent.

Why is that?

Have those blacks and whites "sold out"? That's what the media would have us believe. The media and special interest groups push the narrative that ghetto culture based upon self victimization should be celebrated.

If you think this is racist, then please tell me why more and more blacks are shunning ghetto culture? Are they racist too? Are successful blacks and whites, who speak with a more professional tone, the problem?
