>>>her aversion to the proper usage of English. To insist on grammatical English, Parmar believes, is to exhibit an intolerable form of cultural chauvinism—

English: The Language of White "Oppressors"

Shaquille O'Neal signed a $100 million, five-year contract with the Miami Heat on Tuesday

I wonder if Shaquille feels oppressed?

English is the most powerful linguistic tool ever invented. It has 500,000 words in relatively common use, more than three times larger a vocabulary that the next largest language, French with 150,000 words. Literature in English is as painting in France, music in Germany or sculpture in Italy, the pre-eminent cultural medium for the art form. In a technical capacity only German comes close and English allows a clearer and more concise expression.

Ebonics is a fadishly obscene admission of failure.

Professor Parmar sounds like one angry and delusional black woman, using her podium like a sledgehammer against those who do not share her views.

...I believe Mr. Goldwyn should file a lawsuit against her, and the school for her excessive abuse of the grading system...I'm quite certain that he probably didn't attend that school free of charge.

As a matter of fact, this sounds like a job for David Horowitz and his campus organization.

This is Political Correctness run seriously amok.

Well sure, Ebonics rocks?

But they had to cancel the "Ebonics Mis Amerika Pagent".

They couldn't get anyone to be Mis Idaho.
