Kwame Kwei-Armah:
… Just occasionally one gets a sense that a certain kind of white American feels slightly inferior to an RP British accent, but feels slightly superior to the African American. So when I speak they don't know what the fuck to think. They stare at my mouth for a long time. It’s funny …
Anyone who fancies himself/herself as superior to others is stupidly insecure, and what all of them share is the complete lack of awareness of how transparent their prejudice amounts.
It is funny to watch, yes.
