that’s why when i hear the ava hirons and zac’s of london speak i acc scratch my head bc when i now listen to your siblings and parents, they sound NOTHING like you and you now want to come fix ur lip to say that’s how you normally sound #hmmmm
Southeast London perfectly encapsulates this, you’ll hear black people speak BBE and white people have a cockney twang whole time they grew up on the same street. Accents are racialised 😭😭😭
No, accents are indeed racialised. Black British English was created and popularised by Black British people and anyone taking part in it outside of Blackness are indeed seeking proximity to coolness. I know many non-Black people from endz without Blaccents.
i just don’t understand the accent discourse if ur from london, people speak mle bc of the area they’re from not bc of their race. i argue it’s actually anti black to associate that accent to just black people because there’s the implication that we can’t speak any other way???

Reaching the part of “teens can’t read!” panic where everyone pretends gauche is a casual commonly used word that average high schoolers should all know
