James Baldwin states how much white people take from black language and culture. “Black Language” was born due to black people not getting a good education. It came from systematic racism. Black Language still however gets white washed. At first I was intrigued by this idea of how someone from Paris would not understand someone from merciless, but then I recalled the time I went to Georgia with my family. Upon arriving there I was shocked about how different people spoke. I remember at certain moments really having to pay attention to what they were saying to understand. I wonder what I sounded like to them.
