I have to tip more to change the perception of black people don't tip.
Like the guy in the video, I have to try my best to bring out whiteness in my voice when talking to be taken seriously.
Like the video subtle differences but they're there. |
Just order the chicken. Nobody actually cares. Do not order the collard greens though. I will make a stupid joke if you order some collard greens.
I have a similar complaint. I find my voice dropping some ethnic slang when I hang out with a few black guys. What is up with that? I certainly don't do it intentionally but I catch myself breaking into that mode. I can't figure that out for the life of me.
