We'll always joke around and we'll always have a laugh, but whether we're joking around or being serious, we will express those things in the best way we know how. The way we speak has many layers to it, and it can be light hearted when referring "Black sayings." For example, "Don't touch nun when we go into this grocery store" or it can become serious when we are trying to be understood when navigating our day-to-day lives. This is what we'll get into this week.
