Black talk radio and my Israeli supervisor

This was just funny y'all. This blog needs some funny.

Check it….

The structure of my lab is that you exist in a team. That team does research that relates to yours. My team is the Magnetic Nanoparticles team. Your team is headed be a research associate professor.  Mine is Israeli.

So what happened with my supervisor.

Well I walked into her office to discuss my need to graduate. I was talking about how my two top choices (and only choices) for medical school are two historically Black medical schools. She was like

"OH! I listen to Black radio!"

Whachumean Black radio?

I was of course confused. Why is she listening to Black radio?  I mean how did she even find it? She found it because the radio station she was originally on wasn't doing it for her so she switch to the next one on the dial.

I asked her what kind of music was being played and she didn't know since apparently she listen to Black talk radio.

And she LOVES IT!  She was like they're always having a great time!

My response: Being Black is literally like having a good time. Outside these walls, that's exactly how my life is.

We had lunch and sometimes dinner together all 4 years of undergrad <---Comedy Central!

Her response: "Really? They're just so open!"

Now at this point I'm confused.  As we Blacks know, we're not the most open minded of folks so I needed clarification. 

Me: "Open in what way?"

Her: "They just say whatever they think!"

Note that the whole time she's basically laughing. Apparently, this Black talk radio is giving her life as we would say.

Me: "Oh that's not open. That's keeping' it real. Like let me hit it twice so you know its real!"

Yes I did say that. No she doesn't know what it means. We'll just move on ;-)

Me: "Yea if Black people don't like something or feel a certain way we will tell you! If your outfit is ugly we're gonna say its ugly."

Her: "Yea and its awesome" and she just laughed.

Yea….this is what lab is like. You learn something new everyday….most days that something new isn't science either.

NOT what I'm learning about in my science lab!

(Don't worry, me and liquid Nitro go back real far!)
