Why do white Americans - some not all - criticize African-American for speaking AAVV, speaking Ebonics, speaking ghetto, speaking slang and belittle them?
I find it extremely offensive and unbearably selfish because speaking AAVV is the way I detach my self from white American and embrace my heritage. For instance, if any Asian-American, a Asian born in American, wanted to do the same, all he or she would have to do is start speaking Asian, but American-Americans do not have that same privilege because White America robbed us of are heritage, so why would you complain when we subconsciously and consciously crated a new one, a new culture that differs from yours?
So my question again is, why do white Americans - some not all -criticize African-American for speaking AAVV, speaking Ebonics, speaking ghetto, speaking slang and belittle them?
