To say that someone who speaks with a foreign accent is not good enough to be heard is racist. In America we hear foreign accents frequently. The governor of California, Schwarchnegger or something has a foreign accent. So you want Americans to not listen to Arabs who speak English when they are on TV because they do not speak English like Americans? If what they say is right, it does not matter if they have a different accent. What matters is if we can understand them. Arabs should have the right to listen to many different kinds of speakers who speak Arabic. We listen to Mark Regev on TV and he speaks English but with an accent. We don`t say- you have to send Benjamin Netanyahu because he speaks more American English, then we can connect. |
