Judge Calls Keyshia Cole ‘Illiterate’

Hello All. Keisha ain’t the only one that’s half illiterate. Many, many Americans, black and white but mostly black, do not have a good command of the English language. Take one of my nephews, a wonderful, loving young man who finished high school in the 90s but could hardly read. At his graduation celebration, my son had to help him read his cards, so sad! I have a girlfriend at work who has to pass her emails to me to check for errors and editing before she sends them division wide. When a black person goes for an interview, most likely they will be interviewed by a white person, not all the time but likely unless of course its an all-black business. First of all, how they dress is utmost important and second, when they open their mouths to speak. If you have a crisp, Oprah-like voice, and know what they speak on, they think “Hey, they’re one of us” and lo and behold, most get the job. It’s so important how we are perceived by the white establishment especially when applying for a good-paying job. (And so many of our young folks don’t want “to sound white”) I’ve always wanted to sound like Oprah but childddddddd, it’s so hard to get rid of a southern accent unless you fake it and folks, I don’t blow smoke. One thing about this board? FULL of intelligent black women, and a few good men? LOL LOVE YOU SANDRAROSE family, have a great weekend and KEEP HOPE ALIVE, KEEP HOPE ALIVE, KEEP HOPE ALIVE!
