    dop you think ebonics should be an acceptable language, or does it promote ignorance? Did it come from blacks making thier own style or from further back when they wernt educated and it's just been passed down?

    Ebonics was a way to further keep minorities down. Make prominent blacks support and lobby for it. Make the minority masses feel it's in there best interest AND on the verge of becoming socially acceptable. Watch them all undereducate themselves and suffer the consequences.

    What a way to bring power to the white man. :rolleyes:

    It's already an accepted language. Academically and culturally.

    And I think a language develops from both a past and present conditions.

    That's so far from accurate it's laughable. Walk into an interview for a Fortune 500 company speaking ebonics. I bet the next Fortune 500 company doesn't even call about your resume.

    I hate when i hear black people talk their nonsence. Take some fucking pride in being a somewhat intelligent life form and learn to speak properly.

    Creativity? Naw. I think it promotes laziness and an underlying agenda to discredit and inhibit much of this countries impoverished youth later in life.

    I think it promotes being undereducated, which isn't a very worthwhile goal.
