Urban English? Is the inability to speak correctly contributing to unemployment?

You already know the answer.

The irony is rich.

I love when the illiterate felon Ray Lewis is gibberishing on the field alongside straight arrow, sharp solon, solid citizen Steve Young and you know Steve is thinking something about Lewis' fractured speech patterns.

I would suggest the toughest challenge in that situation is to not let your face betray you.

Nope, nope & hell nope....I know this stance is racist but hell no.

Although I am sure this is a factor, there is a much bigger issue at play. . Many people just don't want to hire people of color.

Check out the black versus white resume study. When resumes with similar experience, education, and background are sent with traditional white names vs. traditional black names, the ones with traditional white names got significantly more callbacks been the one with traditional black sounding names. And we are not talking about names such as Laquishinika. Names such as Tyrone, T'Ron, Lakisha, etcetera vs. Joshua, Heather, Chad, etc.

Meh, I always kinda felt like talking good was a sign of racism.

Well guess what? While this is true a minority of the time, the same findings held true when the hiring managers were black.

There are countless other studies that demonstrate that black people discriminate against black people more than they do against white people.

Sorry.

No. I am only saying what I posted. That when all is equal, including the experience and education, the majority of folks would rather hire a white person than a black person. The controlled studies support that.
