Have you ever been told that the way you speak or act is "white"? Can a person who isn't White be considered as "acting white" because of their interests? The Nerd With Accents Podcast hosts, Joe and Jay G join us this week for a hilarious episode on being "Black outside the box." In this episode we discuss interests, hobbies, and even ways of speaking that for a long time were considered "white" simply because they don't fall into stereotypical ideas of Blackness. Join the conversation by using #gooduptuesday on social media or tagging @gooduppod.
