@tofreedommm @JohnBlakeCNN @CNN 1-There is so much wrong with this article, I don’t know where to start, except to say that it needs significant revision, or scrap it altogether. Who gave Blake the OK to write this & WHY. @SkyCerulean @tobiasbuckell @DeannaHoak @RSGAT @TParkerSC @staceyNYCDC @geedee215
@tofreedommm @JohnBlakeCNN @CNN @SkyCerulean @tobiasbuckell @DeannaHoak @RSGAT @TParkerSC @staceyNYCDC @GeeDee215 2-This could’ve been a thoughtful conversation about language, names, and culture, but NO. It’s reductive trash about race and gives misinformation.
@tofreedommm @JohnBlakeCNN @CNN @SkyCerulean @tobiasbuckell @DeannaHoak @RSGAT @TParkerSC @staceyNYCDC @GeeDee215 3-There’s NO SUCH THING as a “white sounding name.” All anyone has to do is maybe chat w/some Europeans. Iceland, French, Scottish, Czech, Swiss, German, Ukraine etc. might all be “white” but their names won’t likely sound alike AT ALL. That’s typical American laziness.
