Black English would be black pages with white print on them.

I don’t know why this was not addressed sooner.

The Constitution was white paper with a little bit of black on it.

Sorry, that’s how the country was founded.

ebonics was never perceived as a flattering or respectful term, at least not that I ever saw.
