Balmy.” “What does it mean?” “It means when there’s a little bit of a humidity in the air. It’s hot but not scorching. When it feels like there’s a blanket around your skin. Balmy.” “Use it in a sentence?” “The air was balmy and thick as we rode to the graduation ceremony.” “See? She’s a wordsmith,” Rodriguez says admiringly. “I told you.” https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_5d12613be4b0a39418697db1 idk why but this part is sending me ▌│█║▌║▌║ before I am Canadian, I am Chromatican ║▌║▌║█│▌ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miel 15,009 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Eh, it's not the worst thing he could have said. Definitely could have been better and a little more that "that Black guy from The Wire" like I'm- 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirages 20,259 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Idk I don't see much harm would yall be more satisfied if he called him brotha? but for real if you don't know someone's name and have to describe them you use their physical features. Imagine he said the black haired guy from The Wire that wouldn't be offensive but also I'd wanna know how many people would go straight to the African American person. Also he can't use African American because Idris isn't American I do t think he intended it to be a racial thing... It's what we as society do and read into everything to be offensive. Especially since he's a part of minority too I'm the bitch that's fragile Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

uo111 5,201 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I don’t know who this is, but: he seems really dumb black guy is not offensive (African American has been out of popular use to describe black people for some time now) it’s still disrespectful to not know his name and just refer to him as “the black guy from the wire” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I just anticipated much more vitriol/slurs than a bad descriptor. Both not good, of course. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
