An accent which suggests that a person is either black, identifies as being black, or aspires to be identified as black. It is a distinctive manner of pronunciation independent of geographical area. A person who speaks with a blackcent is not necessarily black. All people who are black do not speak with a blackcent.
The acknowledgement of a blackcent is not intended to be racist, simply an observation of the evolution of the linguistics of american english. It's all good people!
