What he daddy ought to've tole him is to keep his fool mouth shut if'n he can't say somethin' nice 'bout folk what ain't like him... ...but Lawdy, it seem like that'd be too much to ask o God, hizself...
American Power: Obonics:
Pardon my own slang here for a moment, but my daddy done tol' me dat Mr. Charley goin' t'own my po' llittle black ass if I didn' knows how be writin' in stan'rd English ... know what' I'm sayin'? And with a steady hand, mofo!. Miss Rondell's from Tupelo, Mississippi, but she might as well be from another world. And she don't seem so po' herself, considerin' all those ocean cruises she be talkin' 'bout. But I better be careful here, yo! Jes' be's messin' wit' dis heah stuff an' I be gettin' attacked as RAAACIST!!
The difference, massa douglas, is that Miss Rondell isn't writing that way to make fun of or otherwise belittle those not like her... You're a bigot because, Halfrican American or not, your intent is to hurt those who fail to think, act, look, or (in this case) talk just like you...

“Black heritage. Whoo hoo! That is teh awesome. I goin' be try'n escpe from de massa's house to be goin' to dis heah black her'tge trail. Y'sm sir!" - [Posted by Donald Douglas to THE SWASH ZONE: BLACK HERITAGE TRAIL, BOSTON, MASS. at 10:27 PM, February 17, 2010] (The author of the "Black Heritage Trail" post deleted the comment because she found it offensive, but it subsequently became the subject of posts here, and here. The closest LBCC PoliSci professor Douglas has come to addressing his comment himself appears here.)
