I’ve been thinking about the whole issue of who can “legitimately” speak in the voice of someone who does share their race, ethnicity or ...
when this collided with a current YouTube rabbit hole I’m exploring.
That would be reaction videos to music if the 60’s and 70’s by people currently 20-40.
The reactor typically listens to the music cold from a submitted link and films their reaction.
Watch reaction to The Bee Gees song Staying Alive are eye opening.
Black reactors often start by saying they know nothing about the song or the group. then
recognize the opening notes (I know this, in lots of movies) and then: You mean they’re white??!! (Usually much more colorfully expressed).
So far, no one has said the song is no longer a valid expression of the feelings they associated with it.
