The Canadian wisp of a singer feels she shares an affinity with black men. "When I see black men sitting, I have a tendency to go -- like I nod like I'm a brother," she told New York magazine. "I really feel an affinity because I have experienced being a black guy on several occasions."

It got her thinking about casual racism, and that inspired her to play with the cover of her 1977 album, "Don Juan's Reckless Daughter." The cover features a young child, Mitchell as herself and someone who looks like a black man.

"That's me. The black guy in the front."

Black face is nothing to be proud. Who told her about the nod shyt? Y'all Wikileaks of the black community
i smell a mole.
Next she'll come out talking about how she feels hispanic and nods UP when she sees her gardener.

... Side note...
Hispanics nod up to say what's up
AA nod down to say I see and yup it's the same shyt over here too.

what do white people do?
