Submit ReviewMetro Detroit is one of the most racially segregated areas in the country. And when you're a Black person from a place like this, you probably learn to code switch at an early age. There are many ways to switch the way you speak and behave, depending on who you're around. But today's episode is about Black people code switching as they move between majority white spaces and majority black spaces, something that's often necessary in order to get by in the world.
