I Was Raised Talking Like This!
Why Is Black Language Known As Ebonics?
My Launguage belief is that Ebonics is a form of racism and that it is preferred to African Americans because of the way we were brought up talking which i think is not fair so this blog shows the opinions people have on Ebonics and were its from
- Since Slavery Black People Have been thought
- of as ignorant people,3/5th of a person. Not Human But An Object.
- Ebonics-Known as dialect and not proper or standard
- Vernacular-The Language spoken casually by a specific country or region of people
I Believe That Ebonics Is a very important Topic To Talk About. To Me Ebonics is just a racial made up stereotype to pin on Black People To show how we are so "Ignorant" or "Stupid" When In actuality We are very smart human beings.Also Not only black people speak Ebonics 78% of white Americans say they speak Ebonics are the regular so basically this blog lets me know what you think an how you feel about it.

During this investigation I learned more then i anticipated.The data i Collected Just Made My Language beliefs stronger That Ebonics is a form of racism.I interviewed two races of people predominantly Black and white i realised that each race blamed each other on how Ebonics was started.Blacks said During slavery Whites use to talk to Them as ignorant people.whites said it was the way slaves talked because they were ignorant and didn't know how to read or write so they made up there own language.To Me Looking at my results just made me bbelief that yes Ebonics is a form of rasism but not only on blacks but on whites also.
