I feel you, I am a minority man (not African-American) in this country and I find white people often shocked when they first meet me. Like they can’t believe a brown-skinned man could speak ‘good English.’ Well, let’s see…English is a white language, but being in this country, we have to learn it to survive. Why not learn it (and other things) well? What, because we’re brown or black men we automatically have to set a lower standard? I think whites are threatened by smart black men (and brown!) because they don’t want to believe we could ever surpass their intelligence.
