In the 1970s, “Ebonics” was the allegedly natural language of Black Americans. My father strongly objected to having Black students in his district taught in Ebonics. The only teacher in his district who supported him was an elderly Black woman who accurately said that Ebonics would permanently relegate Blacks to an economic ghetto. Given how awful Ebonics were, it’s inevitable that they’re back. An associate dean at Arizona State University just wrote a lengthy book saying that proper English writing is inherently racist.
Asao Inoue is the associate dean for Academic Affairs, Equity, and Inclusion in the college of integrative Sciences and Arts at Arizona State University. With Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from Oregon State University and a Ph.D. from Washington State University, he’s a man steeped in modern American academia. Inoue’s bio establishes that job is to teach young people how to communicate through the written word:

Clearly, Inoue is advancing writing and discipline in academia – or is he?
Chrissy Clark caught up with Inoue’s 2019 book, Labor-Based Grading Contracts: Building Equity and Inclusion in the Compassionate Writing Classroom. Clark slogged through this academic opus to reveal the mental degradation of academia and the appalling ideas that are oozing out of the academic and infecting – and destroying – America.
Inoue’s central premise can be boiled down to one idea: Teaching students the English language is inherently racist, something magnified when teachers expect non-White students to perform competently in English. In other words, it’s Ebonics all over again.

While proper English may or may not be racist, having to turn in homework is absolute racist...or. at least, something very bad.
Ebonics TranslatorFo shizzle.
One of my former co-workers who is black is one of the best “speakers” of English I have ever met. He is black. This is BS.
Blacks insisting on ebonics is not a whole lot different than creationists insisting on literal interpretation of the bible.
Both are a huge advantage in the job market for the people who aren’t shooting their own feet.
Wut?
He be actin' white, then.
This is sickening.
Yo This iz sickening. what 'chew thinkin' man?
What you talkin about Willis?
It also turns out that the only inherently non-racist professions are robbing, murdering, raping, selling drugs, and whoring.
I read a very interesting work years ago that found that one of the biggest difficulties blacks students have with math is actually that their English is so poor and non-standard that they literally don’t understand the problems and don’t know how to express the answers. I think it was called “Less is More,” referring to the way black students tried to express the concept of a mathematical operation.
A lot of the supposed “New Math,” with its complicated procedures for reaching the right answer, was an attempt to adept math concepts for black students. I guess teaching them standard English first - this was during the time of Ebonics - was never considered.
Of course, now even getting the right answer is considered racist, so I guess the question is moot.

“The only teacher in his district who supported him was an elderly Black woman who accurately said that Ebonics would permanently relegate Blacks to an economic ghetto.”
A friend who worked in a black district described the anger of black teachers when not just free lunch, but free BREAKFAST was provided for the students. They understood that the gubmint had no expectations of the mothers at all, and was paying them simply to breed; most of the mothers didn’t work, and had plenty of time to prepare breakfast. The obesity/diabetes epidemic among them was funded by taxpayer dollars...
I bin sayin
Well, Shady. There’s the clue. “One” of the people you knew. Ever lived or worked in the ‘hood?. Go get some experience. Then come back and tell us all about it.
I’ m surprised that ‘actually’ doesn’t translate into ‘axually’.
I’m axing for a frend.
