[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“You’re so articulate” as if they were surprised I’m not a total idiot[/quote] This doesn’t sound like a back handed compliment to me. This is just a compliment.[/quote] Unless your black?[/quote] It should be pretty well-known by now that this is not something you say to a Black person. You can look up essays about it but the reality is that people have an idea in their heads about the intelligence of Black people and it’s extremely condescending to act surprised when they are well-spoken. Which is usually the context of these “wow you’re so articulate!” situations. [/quote]
