Callout specifically to Jeff who cannot understand the concept of black peoples speech not being innately wrong.

Me: There is no such thing as an inferior/wrong way to speak, dialects are a thing. Variation is life.

Family A: But it just wasn’t what I was raised on, it’s improper.

Me: And other people were raised on speech that is different than yours, so it’s proper to them

Family A: They still shouldn’t use aks, it just sounds uneducated.

Me: …………………….that’s still not how this works……
