I know we're not disparaging Bernie because he shook the brotha's hand like that are we? If someone is shaking your hand and they moved in like we do and you know how to reciprocate, there's nothing wrong with that. Actually I think it's commendable and not pandering at all. For the record, black people saw this and gave him props.
I think you misread my intent. The post was to illustrate that you can relate to people on a subtle level.
Pardon my ancient and oblivious whiteness, but since when did hot sauce become a black stereotype thing.....??? I guess I've been asleep but that reference would have gone right over my head if not for this thread. I guess Hillary is too hip for me. Now if she had pulled out a pack of Kools.......
Lyrics from a Beyoncé song. "I keep hot sauce in my bag, swag." http://theweek.com/speedreads/61912...by-claiming-carries-hot-sauce-bag-like-beyonc There may be white Beyoncé fans who also carry around their own personal bottles of hot sauce, but hearing her say she has hot sauce in her bag isn't a shout-out to them. [Beyoncé is] talking to the Southern and Great Migration Black Americans listening — to them, to us, it hearkens to home. To childhoods spent at fish frys, church picnics, and visiting relatives. It's a reference to a cultural connection, one that spans the diaspora of Black American identity. [Eater]
