I disagree with nothing you say. Uppity black woman "Jammella" is contemptible and we can only imagine what was said before filming. Note she did tell Caryn (white lady's actual name) get you "get your cis white ass out of here."

Do check out her Instagram page. It will hone your understanding of what we are dealing with, true ugliness inside and out.

Does anyone ever apply the term "uppity" to other ethnic groups?

I don't think so but she certainly warrants the perjorative term. No one is pushing back against this, at least not publicly. No one cares.

It reminds me of that video in which right-winger Devon Stack compares how black people in this country to the boy who sends people to the cornfields for displeasing him.

That's what they media wants us to believe.

The real black and white divide has certainly changed in many ways.
It recently occurred to me that this cultural sea change may become a net positive.

I am a fervent supporter of the most self-aggrandizing, outraged, indignant, phenomenally uppity black people that this completely unexpected culture can generate... If they're in the military and rejecting the jab.
We need these dissenting voices. Fuck all!!!

I would encourage anyone and everyone to support the fuck out of the black troops!!!

'Cause the black community ain't having this jab bullshit. My Ninja Soldiers DGAF!

It's also possible that she's a biatch.

Her actions have certainly been exploited to represent a stereotype that someone has an interest in protruding.

We've always just used it for snobs here. I didn't even know that it was connected to racist terminology until reading some article posted on Facebook a few years ago.

Really? Where?

Southern US.

Does any other group get called 'cracker'? Does any other group get called 'pajeets'? 'Slant eyes'? What's your point?

So you're admitting the use of a racial term?

You say ‘admit’ like he did something wrong? What’s your problem with using ‘racial terms’?

Where the fuck do you think you are?

Are you lost?

I feel like uppity isn't a racial term, that could mean anyone who is acting arrogant

[–]Noam_Chomsky 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

The term is a thinly veiled racial condescension.

There's a baked in notion of undeserved arrogance.

Here in the south "uppity" is used all the time. When I was a kid my boss called me uppity when I quit the grocery store for a better job.
