      @@africanodyssey4805 What you are using is an example OF code-switching or circumstances in which code-switching play a major role, that is not the set (only) definition. Code-switching is a broad concept and is not ascribed to job applicants or the professional setting only. Somebody with a strong accent (eg: Irish/Scottish) may decide to alter their accent so it allows for both parties to be heard and communicate effectively allowing for smoother and easier conversation. As somebody that lives in an urban area where English is spoken a lot when I go back home to visit the more rural areas I will speak my home language (mother tongue) or perhaps not use as wide an English vocabulary as I would usually use. That right there is code-switching. I will not use a “white” accent because my black family will not be able to understand as clearly as if I used my “black” accent similarly to when I get back to the urban areas. I will not use my “black” accent as the white people & people of colour there may not hear me as clearly, hence Code-switching :)

      He is partly right with his French and African at the same time, BUT he himself was the one who made a joke that was only focused on one of the two sides.... It is quite paradoxical that he criticises a one-sided view after having started it. He was the person who first completely ignored the "French", while the ambassador at least accepted the African roots.
      A colonial criticism with - "French Africa" is world champion! - would probably have provoked less criticism.

I will say a lot of it hits different when you're living through the times he's joking about bc he was a thought leader in our culture and society. But the comedy is golden and will stand the test of time-it will be funny whenever. If you can, you HAVE to watch him live.

      No, he completely missed the point. His original joke was offensive exactly because he was denying the players their dual identity. He was denying that they were French. And he did it again in this section, mentioning how "black people celebrated how these Africans can become French". They didn't "become French", they were born in France, they were always French.
      The Ambassador did NOT make that same mistake, he didn't deny the players their African heritage, he only defended their French heritage. He even stated that their African background is now part of France's culture as well.

    • @Teilnehmer
      @Teilnehmer 3 роки тому +16

      I think the segment is pretty weak. Like a lot of Trevor's arguments he is just building a weak straw-man. The french ambassador wasn't really saying they don't have a dual-identity, he was just saying that the French identity is not defined or restricted by origin, what the French ambassador was saying does not exclude the possibility of a dual-identity. In fact any such assumption is pretty absurd. Of course any French citizen will have several identities in a lot of different areas. The French ambassador took offense that Trevor's joke denied their French identity.
      But of course the other points Trevor raised are very important. It's definitely pretty hypocritical if a society only acknowledges and grants "proper" cultural identities to people from (colonial or other) minority populations if the person in question excels at something but will not acknowledge the identity if the person "fails" certain arbitrary cultural standards.
      However, there is also a deeper problem of societies and membership here in general. Where is the point where a certain person gets to be a member of a society and when will they lose that position? Is there a limit to what people can do to flaunt rules and expectations? Should people be excluded ever? What about a murderer? A serialkiller? Or someone who despises all conventions or rules of a society but who also has achieved a certain basic legal protection, for example simply by birth or any other way.

    • @DamocMetalFever
      @DamocMetalFever 2 роки тому +8

      This subject is part of a cultural difference between France and Anglo-Saxon countries.
      The rationale behind french approach is to emphasize what people have in common i.e French nationality before what makes an individual unique in order to reduce the potential for discrimination (and also because during french colonial times it was seen as the superior status - by the french).
      France has a history of discrimination that reached an horrible apex when it shamefully participated in jewish deportation in WW II and afterward with the dismantling of the colonies.
      It was considered the best approach that in the eyes of the society you should be French first and whatever comunity you're from second (as an added benefit) to try and prevent to have french people turning on each other.
      That's why it grates over most french people's nerves when you reverse the order because, as Trevor stated, it's the attack path of right-wing/racist/xenophobic people and it comes with bad memories of old, not fully asleep, demons.

    Thank you Trevor. How you clarified the distinction of a person and a group plus acknowledging a person's background / cultural background just brilliant. I find it so sad how many people don't know their family history. I have worked with kid's who have no idea of where their family came from. I have helped some people start their genealogical journey, they found themselves stronger for knowing their families stories.

    Trevor your counter argument was so incredibly amazing. You know about being diverse better than any ambassador. You’re a genius with explaining your point of view. I agree that every person whose ancestor is an immigrant should celebrate the original cultural background of his ancestors regardless where he’s born. That does not necessarily mean he does not love or defend the country where he’s born and brought up in. He can be a patriot without having to forego his identity.
