"I think it's interesting that other forms of expression associated with this group--jazz,
blues, rap and art such as murals--are viewed as vibrant, beautiful and sources of pride
among the black community," says Haeri. " [Ebonics] is a very rich and colorful dialect.
Yet to hear many people describe it, including leaders in the black community, they seem
to want to disown it. That's because in this country there is a longstanding rhetoric of
integration and assimilation, and to say that a group not only has its own art and culture
but also its own language is, for many, too threatening to their ideas of national unity."

You're really not expected to understand.

You don't have the command of language.

One can accommodate what one doesn't 
in fact teach.
