University of Washington Tacoma - An "antiracist" poster in a college writing center insists American grammar is "racist" and an "unjust language structure," promising to prioritize rhetoric over "grammatical 'correctness.'"

The poster, written by the director, staff, and tutors of the University of Washington, Tacoma's Writing Center, states "racism is the normal condition of things," declaring that it permeates rules, systems, expectations, in courses, school and society.

"Linguistic and writing research has shown clearly for many decades that there is no inherent 'standard' of English," proclaims the writing center's statement. "Language is constantly changing. These two facts make it very difficult to justify placing people in hierarchies or restricting opportunities and privileges because of the way people communicate in particular versions of English."

It's racist to teach students to use American grammar ... cause then they might expect that they can get a job when they graduate ... and and they maybe even have to pay back some of their student loans!

[ConservativeMind]

Ebonics for all!

[Trillian]

People who call everyone and everything racist are morons.

Well at least they are now conscious of their cultural appropriation and can return to the natural state of grunts and hand gestures.

In the introduction to its “commitment” section, the Tacoma Writing Center pledges to “listen and look carefully and compassionately for ways we may unintentionally perpetuate racism or social injustice, actively engaging in antiracist practices”

And, we best ban cursive, while we’re at it!

Grammar got runned-over by a reindeer!

It’s amazing how anything they are too lazy, or stupid to do, magically become a race issue.

[OpusatFR]

LOL! Like English is the only language with rules for grammar.

Dumb bunnies!

Sure. Because your teaching goal is to make as many people ignorant, sniveling idiots as you can. You can b*tch slap them around much easier. The laugh is, once your little teaching deeds are done, you’ll be next on the list. May you swing high.

First of all, we must internalize the 'flatulation' of the matter by transmitting the effervescence of the 'Indianisian' proximity in order to further segregate the crux of my venereal infection. Now, if I may retain my liquids here for one moment. I'd like to continue the 'redundance' of my quote, unquote 'intestinal tract', you see because to preclude on the issue of world domination would only circumvent - excuse me, circumcise the revelation that reflects the 'Afro-disiatic' symptoms which now perpetrates the Jheri Curis activation. Allow me to expose my colon once again. The ramification inflicted on the incision placed within the Fallopian cavities serves to be holistic taken from the Latin word 'jalapeno'."

Because speaking intelligibly and in a way that is understandable to others is a racist micro-aggression.

Remember the 1990s when the Clinton Administration attempted to make “Ebonics” an officially recognized dialect?

That decision would have forever hamstrung a segment of the black populace and required employers to ignore grammar skills when interviewing candidates.

[dainbramaged]

That’s mighty white of them, ain’t it?

[fella]

Sounds like a small pool in the feted educational swamp that is in need of financial draining.

[WENDLE]

I want these communist institutions massively defunded. NOW!!
