The College Fix reports that a subcommittee within the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC), which is itself part of the National Council of Teachers of English, is demanding that American teachers “abolish standard English” (aka, “White Mainstream English”).
We DEMAND that:
teachers stop using academic language and standard English as the accepted communicative norm, which reflects White Mainstream English!
teachers stop teaching Black students to code-switch! Instead, we must teach Black students about anti-Black linguistic racism and white linguistic supremacy!
political discussions and praxis center Black Language as teacher-researcher activism for classrooms and communities!
teachers develop and teach Black Linguistic Consciousness that works to decolonize the mind (and/or) language, unlearn white supremacy, and unravel anti-Black linguistic racism!
Black dispositions are centered in the research and teaching of Black Language!

It is interesting that learning proper English is considered “racist” for people of African ancestry in this country, while it is NOT in Great Britain. Listen to British television shows and note the difference. I recommend BBC America if you can’t stand watching them on PBS.
And aviation.
maybe blacks should open up there own schools.
I think they’re leaving in droves.
They are pushing it on companies because 1) the government program created a fake workforce with no transferable skills or discipline, 2) the government no longer has the money to sustain it, and 3) they were only doling out other peoples’ money to a fraction of the unemployables.
