I really enjoy watching white people squirm when I turn this back on them, “you speak very good English yourself. Your prepositions are off, but generally not bad. Where did you go to school?” They usually look at me totally aghast at the concept of turning their racism against them. They like to believe that I am an anomaly, so I make sure to add that where I am from, everyone speaks like me and many are far more intelligent. I am not special. If you believe in whiteness and white superiority, this thought of a large group of ordinarily intelligent non-white people will drive you mad with paranoia! Sweet!!😊
