    I dont see why a black person should need thier special language to be proud of being black. Nor do I see how you can consider Ebonics a language all its own. It uses the same words as English (plus a few), same (basically) sentence structure, and a person who only knows ‘normal’ English can understand someone speaking Ebonics. I agree English is the language of success, all around the world. I think Ebonics is hampering progress for black people, because its obvious in these forums some people think its lasyness. Ebonics seems to be merely a pride issue. The only thing I really HATE is pride. Its stupid. You’re a human being, not a race, so sit down, shut up, and DO something right with this planet, because there are WAY bigger problems than racial or religious issues. The fact that this very site exists scares me. Why do we need such a thing? Shouldnt we be out being probuctive, instead of dwelling on the past, or harboring old hatreds?
