Guy is nuts ~ modern English, without suffixes and inflections, was undoubtedly created by the Danish and Saxon "slave class" ~ not by the leadership elite.

He's a she, and apparently not too given to thinking things through: racists everywhere should get behind the Eubonics movement with the motto, "A ghetto in every mouth."

I wonder if this prof. used Ebonics to fill out an application to get his position at Brooklyn University?

I am guessing no... which makes his whole argument, pathetic at best!

If parents would rather their children speak ebonics or some other psuedo-language, then more power to them (or their teachers). They had better not complain when their ebonics speaking kids have a hard time breaking into the professional world.

Pardon me, if I'm being somewhat niggardly in stating my opinion...

A quick Google disclosed that SHE has obtained the lofty position of "Assistant Professor (Substitute)".

"The need to maintain control over English by its native speakers has given birth to a policy of manipulative open-mindedness in which it is held that English belongs to all who use it provided that it is used correctly. This is the art of giving away the bride while insisting that she still belongs to you."

So this racist incompetant communist has no problem discarding proper English, but she is against plagerism? After all, isn't being anti-plagerism the same as giving away the bride (writing) and then insisting she still belongs to you?
It's outrageous that this piece of diversity is employed anywhere let alone at a university. On second thought a university is probably the only place that would employ this POS.

>>Have you read 'Mourt's Relation?'<<

Not yet, no. I just started "Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners" by Bunyan, and can't wait to begin exploring it.

>>you can read my pieces 'Sabbath Day' and 'Monody on a Broken Column,' both of which are about them.<<

Please keep me posted!

Oh brother. Another one! I knew another girl who even lighter than me and spewed the most vicious crap and I asked her if her parents raised that way. Sheesh.

She has nothing to worry about. Most Americans can't speak the 'english' english anyway, even white people.

"White devils"??

Someone, quick, call her a "Black demon" and see how she responds.

Seriously, her mind is mush and it's horrible that this person has been licensed to say anything to anyone in an educational setting. Completely monstrous.

Am I the only one who noticed that when this woman wants to make her point, she uses proper English?
