Burnett, Myra N.; Burlew, Randi; Hudson, Glenetta – Journal of Black Psychology, 1997
Reviews the findings of L. Koch and A. Gross (1997) and suggests that the positive perceptions of black children toward Black English reflect the dominant linguistic standard within their peer groups. Retention of the Black English vernacular is advocated because it is an expressively rich form of communication. (SLD)
