  • Accentism in the UK ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

    Hey whatโ€™s up people, long time no speak! #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodNegro is bringing a SPECIAL episode of #QuarantineTalks!

    Today me and one of my best friends, Tim, discuss #accentism in London! I felt with the passing of โ€œQueenโ€ Lizzie and all of the controversy surrounding the โ€œroyalโ€ family, that this was the PERFECT time to revisit this conversation! The term "accentism" describes discriminatory or unfair behavior centered on someone's accent or language use. Tim is an Australian born and raised man, whoโ€™s mother happens to be welsh! He came to the UK at 23 and has been there ever since (minus vacations and sabbaticals).

    We discuss the DOZENS of different accents the city of London has, and the class differences therein!! The myriad of ways that SOUNDING a certain type of way in the UK can either help or hurt your chances in jobs, relationships, social-economic circlesโ€ฆbasically EVERYTHING!

    Then we go macro to talk about the difference of the Scottish and Irish accents, along with a little history on how the monarchy of britain have systematically discriminated against the other isles (Welsh, Scotts, Irish). We also discuss how Londoners view Australians as backward country hicks (the same northerners view southerners) and, lastly, do a deep dive on the phenomenon known as โ€œThird Cultureโ€ !

  • Sincerely Blve

    Hey whats up poeple! #QuarantineTalks is back with a FRESH new episode! Your #FriendlyNeighborhoodNegro @JCFromTheOVT is sitting down with astrologist, a hood psychologist, #artist and #rapper :@iamblve !

    We talk about his origin story: growing up in #BatonRouge, witnessing kidnappings (yea you read that right) being part of a legacy of #CivilRights activists in the area, His home life trails and tribulations, and his inspirations and introductions into #music, #poetry and #storytelling!ย 

    Then we talk about his three albums #Demigod #Inspired and Inspired 2, his month long #eurotrip to #Spain #Italy and the #UK expanded his worldview, and how #coronavirus has adapted his creative processes and understanding! Then, last but not least, we talk about how Louisiana is the smallest state in America (yes, you also read that right)

    #Sidenotes and points of correction: #RhodeIsland is the smallest state, #NewOrleans, founded in 1718 is actually older than the #UnitedStates (founded in 1776) but, is not older than #StAugustine in #Florida which is the oldest city established by europeans in 1565.
