My Hood

My friend Steve was on a Merchant Marine vessel with a very racially tense crew. One day while he’s standing next to a white crew member, a black crewman comes up and asks a question. The white guy turns to Steve and says, “Hey can you translate that? I don’t speak jigaboo.”

Steve transferred to another ship VERY QUICKLY. But he said he would have rather used Phyllis’s approach.

For those of you who are completely clueless, ‘jigaboo’ is yet another derogatory term for blacks. The more you learn…
