i witnessed a young black mother scream on her very well-spoken daughter at my old job, telling her to "stop sounding so g**-damn white when she spoke!"
she went on to say that she had tried EVERYTHING to fix this "problem" her child had. she had removed her from her mostly white elementary school, and placed her in the most ghetto school in our area. she constantly berated this child and told her "won't no chile o' hers gonna run 'round ackin white!"
lord knows i wanted to take her home with me and raise her with a family that would praise her english skills, and not shoot them down.
