  • I don't know why I thought most people who watch New Scientist videos weren't racist. I'm very surprised and disappointed.

  • See, black people don't need to talk like they're from the south. I hope to see more intelligent African American role models so they they can all stop trying to be eminem, I mean the other way around.

  • I understand your comment and sentiment. Bear in mind though that the video is actually of very low quality. Notice that you can't see the white (or off-white) of his eyes or teeth. YIKES!... he has no eyes or teeth! :-) Also, remember, that a person's dialect (style and pattern of speech) is largely dictated by their envirnoment at an early age. It wasn't until a few years ago that I got used to seeing a Japanese news reporter speaking with a very "proper" brittish accent.

  • I've never seen someone so Black with an American accent.

    All the black people i know have African accents.

    It's nice

  • I was expecting an African accent, but he only has an American accent.

    *shrug*

  • Soooo true, and thats why I believe VERY LITTLE unless I see it spoken "from the horse's mouth"

  • When you want to find something out about someone do you just ask the person or do you get a broader view and ask people that also know that person. Cause i know some people that are just full of shit. And could talk their way out of anything. Good old Obama propaganda. When will people wake up.

  • Wow! To those who complimented his being articulate... thanks, but Biden already gave the nod to Obama. Actually, I'm quite surprised at your surprise. Please, seek to make more black friends (professionals, if you must), we're all over the place.

    To those who have made jokes, color-wise and otherwise, I was LMAO to most.

    To those with negative intent, c'mon, time to grow up, get out, get exposed, make new friends.

  • I thought the video was poor lighting was so bad.

  • Hes so black, yet he sounds so white!

    He's so black, he's white!

  • rumours? pffft

    search for philip berg here on youtube
