169. “I Thought You Were A White Man”

About this episode

For some people, the idea that the way you talk is largely determined by the color of your skin is a bit strange. But in the U.S., talking ‘like a black person’ or ‘like a white person’ is an idea that’s deeply ingrained in our culture. This episode is a short story that illustrates the idea and gives you a bit of context to help you understand it.
