    He is the Lord of the Neighborhood. He’s eloquent when he explains why the cameras are there, and is an excellent facilitator. He know how to keep the conversation going. Oh dang, he just said the N-word. wow. In this case, pretty sure he has a slur for every Johnny or Jane on the street. Lisa Lisa! omg.

    8:35 We should be encouraging our community to strive. Every group in America has come to America with the goal of becoming middle class. So why should we suddenly be the only group that identifies becoming middle class as this nasty word called "bougie-ness"? I think it's almost a reverse Black brainwashing -that somehow attaining success means losing your roots. Well said. Ase' O

    George Casper Homans was my grandfather's cousins and the two are first cousins and I love hearing them talk about The Glades and Aunt Fanny who my mother Lucy Aldrich Homans adored. Unfortunately her father, Robert Homans Sr., committed suicide after his time in the Pacific during WWII. Listening to them makes me feel like this is how my grandfather's voice would have sounded like. I've always wished I'd had the chance to get to know him.

    With the advent of mass media, the Internet, and social media, regional cultures are dying out and the country has become more homogeneous and is growing more and more homogenized every day. Counterintuitively, it seems as though the more homogeneous we have become, the more divided we have become.

    They say this is the closest to what the original colonists sounded like. Sounds strange on the outset but British accents have evolved quite a bit from 1607 when the first brits came to America. a couple hundred years before that and you wouldn't even recognize English as English. I believe it wasn't til about Shakespeare That English would be recognizable to the modern English speaker. I might be a little off but it would have been 1500s at the earliest. The modern English accent in England is non Rhotic (in the word Hard they would pronounce it Hahd.) But England used to have a more Rhotic accent like most Americans. I am not a linguist; this is just stuff I have read but I find it fascinating.
