Wendy Williams will always to a fault critique Black pop culture personalities with the "well spoken" qualifier which she never does with White pop cultural personalities. The implication being, speaking is something Black people have to do well.
So what is this "well spoken" critique Wendy Williams as Aunt Jemima apologist presents?
The "well spoken" critique is one rank with the stench of self hatred and inferiority loathing. It simply says Wendy Williams perceives her Blackness and heritage through the "I Am Thy Darker Brother," "Gone With The Wind" prism. Which supposes idealistically that Black people are inarticulate and speak in a peculiarly distinct manner that isn't "White Like" and somehow disqualifys and devalues their cultural vantage narrative.
What the Aunt Jemima mediocrity of the likes of Wendy Williams are incapable of grasping is Value
in it's pop cultural context as in all other social aspects is dialectical. The mere existence of Wendy Williams as Talk Show Host speaks to the dialectic and her "Well Spoken" Black critique only emphasizes the latent inferiority complex of Wendy Williams and her Aunt Jemima inclinations as default.
