Do people forget that Malcolm X spoke with proper grammar? That Huey Newton spoke with proper grammar?
While if a young brother today uses a big word or speaks with proper grammar, many times he’s told that he’s “talking white”. Or if a young brother spends his time reading he is told that he is “acting white”.
If you think that way, then you’ve been indoctrinated by the white power structure and that’s you whose not “being real” my brother.
And that’s the truth, that’s what’s Black.
