Ebonics is a language system characteristic of certain speech communities in the United States, especially (but not exclusively) African American communities in urban areas and the South. Although it has many features that distinguish it from various dialects of English, it also has very much in common with kinds of English all over the world. It also differs from community to community. We must be careful to note that (a) not all African Americans speak Ebonics; (b) there are non-African Americans who do speak Ebonics, by virtue of having grown up in the communities where it is spoken.

As a black man, I too cant speak proper ebonics. And I will never try because it is a symptom of a lower class of people whether they be black, brown or white.

Because it's difficult to grow stupider.
Maybe with the the right amount of drugs and blunt trauma to the head they could manage it.
Speaking ebonics has nothing to do with being black or being white. Stupidity knows no color.

A better question is why can't black people speak correct English to begin with so they create fake languages as a way of justifying not speaking proper English like the rest of us?

Proper Ebonics is an oxymoron.

in spite of the reality that this does take position each and every once in a lengthy time period, majority of blacks i recognize talk "perfect english" besides so i do not get talked about as appearing white or speaking white. people hardly ever each and every imagine that i'm attempting to be something that i'm not, inspite of the race. i have genuinely been instructed via black those that I act like and talk like myself. what's ideal English besides? did you recognize that the Europeans (particularly the British) continually make interesting of ways people talk because we do not talk perfect English in accordance to them? people have replaced the English language and this language is being replaced favourite via majority of childrens.
