@marcweitzmann As it was verifiable that my name was never spelled with a C. As were so many other errors. But, please, continue with why we should rely on Mr. Dial's memory and description about what you are claiming is put-on Southern accent. — PolitiTweet.org

@marcweitzmann Mr. Dial is from CA. He also thought he saw me on tv with red hair reporting for PBS during Ferguson w. Problem is, I never reported for PBS, I never reported for TV at all, I was never on the ground during Ferguson, my hair was not red during Ferguson. All easily verifiable. — PolitiTweet.org

@redfoliot @BekyBran @nyneuropsych I think you want to be contrarian and signal with Thomas Sowell without actually grasping, or contemplating, what the conversation was/is about. — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

@redfoliot @BekyBran @nyneuropsych First of all, Southern affect or accent is not about grammatical rules or standard English. A person can speak perfectly grammatical English but still have regional accents in pronunciation or emphasis. Even when I speak with perfect grammar, people can still hear that I'm Black. — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

We know that biracial people have long shared the experience of those Black people not considered mixed-- from the one-drop rule to all the laws that discriminated against Black people. Maybe you are white-passing, but that response defies reality. — PolitiTweet.org
