In the African-American communities from which I come, we have a long-standing multi-generational joke about what we call "CP time," or "colored people's time." Now, we no longer refer to African-Americans as "colored," but this long-standing joke about our perpetual lateness to church, to cookouts, to family events and even to our own funerals, remains.
En las comunidades afroestadounidenses de las que yo provengo, tenemos una broma multigeneracional sobre lo que llamamos "tiempo de GC" o "tiempo de la gente de color". Ahora, ya no nos referimos a los afroestadounidenses como "de color", pero perdura esta broma antigua sobre nuestra demora perpetua para llegar a la iglesia, a los picnics, a los eventos familiares, e incluso a nuestros propios funerales.
