It's a far bigger hardship for Average Joe. His posts look like a combination of the earliest attempts of a 5-year-old at writing, and a bipolar mental health patient. 😏

Granting diplomas to those who ain't like learned to write very good is not the answer, y'all.

Unless we want our future leaders to write laws using chatgpt.

Hahahaha - these people are a panic.

Baker-Bell is an associate professor of language, culture, and justice in education who authored a 2020 book titled “Linguistic Justice: Black Language, Literacy, Identity, and Pedagogy.”

Baker-Bell contributed to a 2020 paper calling for an end to “White Mainstream English.”

What you said
I wouldn’t pass a classic English test and I’m definitely white, I haven’t read up on this but why should a deviation from classic English effect a score in a history or math test. As long as a reasonable non racist twot can decipher the meaning of the answer just mark it on its non linguistic merits

Maybe he was groggy from sleeping. And had a nightmare that someone was robbing him at gunpoint.

Hey Shav, here (in the Youtube) is a candidate for the free housing you are making available. I can get you in touch with him, he is a friend of a friend of mine, I have never actually met him in a social gathering. I go to a lot of gatherings to mix it up with other cultures, but his is one with which I am not familiar.
