A controversial educator campaigning to head the state Board of Regents supports ebonics and a bizarre belief that blacks are more susceptible to drug addiction because of their skin pigment.

Regent Adelaide Sanford, who is black and has been quoted as saying white students were not her "agenda," has been an ardent supporter of ebonics, or black English, a form of slang that gained notoriety when it became part of the curriculum in Oakland, Calif., in the '90s.

This woman is the best example I have ever seen of a totally deceived person. She really thinks she knows how to help black children. But the real truth is she has done more to harm them. You cannot help people by making excuses for them. That's called enabling. And ... I guess us white people over here can just go wanting. The nerve of her to want a statewide position, when she has no intention of being a statewide person.

Is she admitting that blacks are different?

"There are people who asked me to run" for state chancellor, Sanford told The Post. "That has happened."

What she say?

I'll translate for all the ebonics brothers and sistas.


"Mutha fu**ers been gettin on ma' a$$ to get out there and represent" for state chancellor, Sandford told the post. "I been done did 'dat."

This is just a small portion that can be hours, well maybe not hours, but certainly a few minutes of fun for your entire family.

Ebonics:It's fun for the whole mother F***ing family.

This has been the whole agenda since the early 1960s and that is why Americas schools are in the shape they are today!

The next statement she'd probably make is that the CIA took advantage of this to introduce nacro-genocide into the inner cities.
