Shying away from “black” names
One thing educated black people are good for, is making fun of “hood,” black names. What’s more embarrassing and “uneducated” than giving a child a name the Anglo Saxxon tongue can’t manage to pronounce?! *Shudders* Educated, black folk always attempt to rationalize their judgment as concern for the poor child’s future. “Well, LaQuaysha certainly won’t get a job with a name like that.” Trust, if little LaQuaysha applies herself and has skills no one can deny, her name won’t hold her back. And even if she doesn’t get a callback because someone looked at and stereotyped her name, isn’t that something like a blessing in disguise anyway? What parent honestly wants their child working for a company that utilizes such racist practices.
