We had Dr. Jeremiah Wright as our keynote speaker at the N'COBRA 2007 National Conference. He was on fire and raised the roof. No matter what white folks say, Dr. Wright is brilliant, on target, a great orator, and teacher, and is ready, and well qualified to address their racist issues, and dosent give one single damn about what they or their stooges think or say, and neither should we.

hahaha this is what youtube is for. getting entertained by crazy people

[duvexy]

What a fool. They have his voice echo and then expect me to take him seriously? Really? Do you really believe only blacks have right brains? Do you really believe blacks don't have left brains? He is not a neurologist, he is just trying to make an excuse for a people who need none.

@OnlyTheWeakNeedHelp it's pointless to you I suppose. At what point do we dictate what's right and what's wrong when it comes to other peoples' dialects and languages? Of course in order to survive you have to use the dominant variant, which is SAL in this country. The SUB-CULTURE decides within their own right what's appropriate and correct, "mutha" is SLANG, but also an abbreviation. Plenty of people use it, but you have to go with the dominant culture to survive. It's called CODE-SWITCHING

@psychmaj323

how did i subsribe standardized american english to other countries? This argument seems rather pointless, but you do bring up a valid point with the realise and realize.

At what point is something a varient in a language vs just plain wrong. If i say dat is that just a varient of the english language or is it wrong. What about shiz, or mutha, whos to decide whether its ebonics or a missspelled word.

[psychmaj323]

@OnlyTheWeakNeedHelp different cultures don't utilize nor have the same consonant clusters and vowels in their dialects or languages. Stop subscribing standardized american english to other countries and to other dialects. Secondly, you have variants of the the AMERICAN english language (ebonics), that being said, ebonics has its own rules and own spelling. Third, so I guess "colour" isn't the same as "color" right? Nor is "realise" the same as "realize" & "carburettor" isn't "carburetor."

@psychmaj323

their is possessive and there refers to location. Now can i ramble?

you can say it however you want, but spelling is aways the same. If you dont spell it right then its not the same.

[psychmaj323]

@OnlyTheWeakNeedHelp And who supposedly has the authoritative say on what's proper and what isn't? In Africa it's common for the word "that" to have the substitution of the digraph "th" for the "d" sound meaning, "that" becomes "dat." Funny how that's transcended through African American Vernacular.

Before you start rambling about ebonics being improper, learn the usage between "their" and "there."

[OnlyTheWeakNeedHelp]

I absolutly disagree with ebonics being equivalent to english. Just because he can cite presidents who speek improperly doesn't mean that their is no improper way to say things. Another problem with ebonics, is its spelling. That and dat are not the same thing. Pronunciation is far different from spelling. Dat and that spoken are the same, one with a different dialect. But the spelling is always the same. I'll just think you less educated if u use dat. Just as i would if you used y'all.
