[quote=Anonymous]"African American Vernacular" being referred to as though it was any kind of standard or dialect is a hoax. What is referred to as "African American Vernacular" today in DC is different than what is spoken by African Americans in Detroit, which is different than what is spoken by African Americans in Atlanta, which is different from what is spoken by African Americans in New Orleans or other parts of the country. Additionally, it is also different than how African Americans spoke in DC 20, 30, 40 years ago. As such, there is no "standard", and there is no "dialect."[/quote]
