https://asalh100.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/2017-black-history-theme.pdfThe Crisis in Black EducationExecutive Summary 2017

A

-Throughout the last quarter of the twentieth century and continuing today, the crisis in black
education has grown significantly in urban neighborhoods where public schools lack resources,
endure overcrowding, exhibit a racial achievement gap, and confront policies that fail to deliver
substantive opportunities. The touted benefits of education remain elusive to many blacks of all
ages. Tragically, some poorly performing schools serve as pipelines to prison for youths.

106
Q

Craig, Zhang, Hensel, & Quinn (Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research) “African American English-speaking Students: An examination of the relationship between dialect shifting and reading outcomes”
Questions the authors asked:

A

  • Is this culturally sensitive and appropriate?
  • Would it help them perform better in school?
111
Q

Ivy, L.J., & Masterson, J.J. A comparison of oral and written English styles in African American students at different stages of writing development. Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 42, 31-40

  • Children who speak AAE eventually learn to switch to MAE in their writing
112
