2.5 Culture
Unit2
Generation EA
a Read the first two paragraphs of the article and answer the
questions.
What does EA mean? It means 'ethnically ambiguous'.
Why don’t the old race labels work any more?
b Read paragraph three.
What’s going to happen in Britain in the next decade?
c Read paragraph four.
Complete the definition. A ‘wigga’ is
d Read paragraph five.
Is Beyoncé’s hair naturally blonde?
e Read paragraph six.
Do you agree with the conclusions?
Is your generation EA?
Are there many mixed race students in your school?
Do you know any wiggas?
Forget black, forget white. EA is what’s hot!
1 EA means ‘ethnically ambiguous’ and describes a new generation — from US stars to London
clubbers.
2 If you talk to any young person in London, it soon becomes clear that they don’t think much
about race or colour. Herelle, a student from Camden, says: ‘Black and white people interact so
much that we have lost the distinction.’ Khan, a young nurse from West Ham, agrees. ‘Trying to
define people by the old race labels doesn’t work any more. Look at the people around you. We are
the new ‘‘blended’’ youth.’
3 Herelle and Khan and millions like them are part of a new group called Generation Ethnically
Ambiguous (generation EA for short). It reflects the demographic reality of countries like the United
States and Britain. In the last census, almost one million Britons identified themselves as members
of more than one race, or members of ‘no race’. In ten years, ‘mixed race’ is going to become the
biggest ethnic minority group in Britain
4 White teenagers are adopting ‘black’ lifestyles and culture in fashion, looks, music, sport and
language. ‘Black urban culture has become everybody’s culture’, says journalist Paul McKenzie. ‘It
represents the triumph of the immigrant black community’. In the past, a young white person who
copied black style was sometimes called a ‘wigga’, a negative term back then. Now wiggas are
every place. The extremely cool David Beckham, Justine Timberlake and Eminem are all famous
wiggas.
5 EA is very hot now. Beyoncé, a black American, dyes her hair blonde, Cristina Aguilera
accentuates her Latin-American roots with her black hair, and multi-racial bands like the
Sugarbabes are more popular every day.
6 The barriers between black and white are disappearing. ‘People don’t make a distinction now
because the distinction isn’t there — culturally and sometimes even physically!’, concludes Nick
Leader. ‘We are the new mix. We are the remix generation’.
