Three African-American voices. Rewatch if you want or watch if you were on the field trip.
First, Obama's speech at the Correspondent's Dinner. Just google the full version and if so inclined, check out Cicely Strong's speech as well.
Watch Reggie Watts' 2012 TED Talk. Google his name and the tag "disorients you...".
And finally, Clint Smith "How to Raise a Black Son in America".
Enjoy and understand.

Clint Smith's TED Talk was deep and revealing, but I can't decide whether I thought Obama's speech or Reggie Watt's TED talk was funnier.
ReplyDeleteClint Smith's Ted Talk has me in this distracted state of thinking right now. I can't seem to focus on anything else.
ReplyDeleteObama's speech was by far my favorite. It was so funny but he was so serious when he said the jokes.
