Ebonics Is Good [Paperback]

Ebonics Is Good is a humble response to the clarion call by Mwalimu Carter G. Woodson, Mwalimu Frantz Fanon, and Mwalimu Malcolm X, among others, to address our African language question. As all of these great Africans and others have shown throughout history, it behooves us to counter the assumption of the ill-informed that Ebonics is bad by demonstrating that it is a GOOD language and worthy of respect.

Ebonics Is Good explores the following topics:

-Linguistic Reality of African American English
-Sociolinguistics of African American English
-Politico-Sociolinguistic Reality of African American English
-Social Construction of Ebonics: A Fasoldian Perspective
-The Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) Initiative
-Linguistic Connections between the African, Jamaican and Negro National Anthems
