Anglophile

Britain is a much older English speaking nation. Many of us heritage is from or partly from the United Kingdom.

Rock n’ Roll was invented in America but the British took it and make it their own.

My Fair Lady was my introduction of the prejudice that exists in England based on accent, location and class.

My father was born and raised in the South. When he would drive through with yankee plates, he was not treated well.

The hatred of other English dialects in both country has many facets. Being an outsider. Believing one’s own dialect is the only right dialect.

I was born and raised in Southern California. I have no accent. Actors are taught to speak as we do.

I wish the English world was more accepting. My favorite people when I visited the U.K. were Liverpudlians. They love their city. They are proud of their city. While London is my favorite city, many of those lucky enough to live there are very critical about it.
