The great philosopher Yellowman has a lot to say about this: Seh, if you have a start, yuh mus have an end If yuh have a pey-per, yuh mus 'ave a pen Five plus five, it equal to ten If yuh 'ave a goat, you put dem in a pen Jump fe happines, yuh jump fe joy Yuh no fe call Yellowman nuh bwoi The origin of the use of "man" came from Black jazz musicians over 100 years ago. They would call each other "man" as a sign of respect, because they were often called the disrespectful "boy."
Putting here as I think it is more relevant that the sports thread. https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ler-of-the-year-jess-carter-england-interview Jess Carter has spent her life grappling with when to hold back and when to speak up; wrestling with being naturally herself, embodying the characteristics her parents instilled in her of being open, honest, vocal and confident, and subduing herself because, while society values those traits, in a black woman they can be viewed negatively.

Tommy Lee Walker exonerated 70 years after execution for rape and murder of Venice Parker https://abcnews.go.com/US/tommy-lee-walker-exonerated-70-years-after-execution/story?id=129465114 Walker, who had no criminal record, maintained his innocence and said that when Parker was killed he was witnessing his girlfriend give birth to his only son -- Edward Smith -- an alibi corroborated during the trial by 10 witnesses, The Innocence Project noted. In the absence of forensic and circumstantial evidence, prosecutors relied on an alleged confession that Walker made, according to the group. Walker later recanted his confession, according to the Innocence Project. "The only direct evidence connecting Tommy Lee Walker to this offense is a confession obtained through the use of coercive tactics," the court's declaration stated.

It was Latinos who murdered Pretti. This isn't a caste system. Or it is, but it works for REAL Spaniards, not the fake ones like Machado.
