Hello, I am an international student and this is the first time I have classmates from other continents. The first times I heard my black classmates speak I was so scared because I thought they were fighting or they were conflictive but now I almost got used to hear them and realised that some black people really speak loud. If another people feel stressed or scared when hearing people speak loud, this may be respected. It is not about being critical to race. If speaking too loud really surprises some people it is because they are not used to and we do not have the obligation to feel comfortable if someone 'shouts' when speaking.

Geez, at least the person was honest enough to ask the question in the first place. Still, my opinion: not all black people fit this category. Hence, I don't think it's fair to make the question so general. Maybe speaking loud is in certain black peoples' culture, and they're used to it. Most I know don't speak that way around me (unless they are extremely agitated.) Yet, I know quite a few who do, and that's just how they are. Some say it's their way to feel 'liberated,' in a sense, since blacks have been oppressed and mistreated for so long. Now they can speak. But regardless, everyone's got an issue or two, regardless of their color, and we have to deal with that 'loud' person as they are.

I don't know why this happens. I'm Nigerian, and we act very similar to other races (excluding blacks). When I was in high school, I would sit in the cafeteria with my Asian girlfriend and her friends, and you could hear the blacks from across the cafeteria (half the size of a pro football field). I mean, girls are supposed to be seen before being heard. But not in the case of black girls, ooooohhhh nnooooo. They have to scream until they're arrested for noise pollution. But this isn't for all black girls - just those without home training.

Well unlike the misconception that loud taliking is bad...people who talk loudly are generally more honest, warmer, understanding, funny & confident about themselves. Trust me its more human to talk with your normal vol. decibel level rather than trying to fake emotions, expressions, behaviour, love, sex , smiles, responses & even serious conversations which is very true of the White, especially people of Western European Bagrounds. This kind of artificiality or sythesised 'fast food' courtesy culture has not only made the average westerner ( white individual)more lonely & pathetic but also more unhappy, dissatisfied and miserable despite all the comforts they enjoy.

I think all of us, all races have silly questions that we are embarrassed to ask. I've never understood why black people, particularly women were loud. I always felt it might be a statement they are constantly wanting to make. That they are important and can speak their mind and being loud was an easy way to show it.

I'm in Tennessee and it's the same here (and everywhere that I've been.) I actually did a search in Google just now for 'Why are black people so loud?' and I found this page. lol. Clearly, I was wondering the same thing. I have no answer for you, sorry. In my opinion, people are usually loud because they were raised around a lot of other kids and people and they had to scream to be heard over all the noise. I'm guessing it's the same with black people, and it just becomes habit. Plus, they often like to play their music quite loud, so they have to be heard over top of that too. I lived in an apartment and had a black female neighbor with two kids and she screamed and yelled practically all the time, and so did the people who visited her. Her friends would pull up outside in their boat car and thump their music for like 45 minutes at a time. I would like to know why people play their music so loud like that? They must not care that it's rude and obnoxious and not everyone likes their music. My ex-husband used to do that too, so it's definitely not just a black thing, but it's certainly an annoying thing.

Some people are just loud and ignorant and some people will always be loud ( and unfortunately ignorant) but please don't stereotype everyone. I'm not loud. As a matter a fact some people think I am strange or creepy because I'm not much of a talker.

There could be many reasons. Most of the time that I have noticed these situations, the crowd seems to be having a good time. Usually this is the case for any group of people regardless of enthicity or race. However, it is not untrue to state the a good majority of black people tend to be very boisterous, even when it isn't needed. And it is simply inconsiderate. A lot of it I think is due to pride. Ignorance knows no color lines. It's everywhere. And when you see an ignorant group of black people, you can't judge a whole race by that. But when you see a group of black people talking loudly, you just have to know that they're being ignorant and are full of themselves. They think that everyone within earshot should be able to hear them, because what they are talking about is far more interesting and important that what anyone else is talking about. It's just fucking rude. THAT is why they are so loud; because they're fucking rude. It has nothing to do with the color of their skin.

I think the one's that talk loud are from the south in which most southern people talk loud and yes it is obnoxious. other black people who talk loud are probably trying to get some attention for themselves.
