the recent controversy in the Oakland,
California school district about Ebonics
—
or, as it is
referred to in sociolinguistic circles, African
American Vernacular English or Black English
Vernacular
—
much attention has been paid to the.
patterns of speech prevalent among African
Americans in the inner city.
In January
1997,
at the height of the Ebonics
debate, author and prominent sociolmguist William
Labov testified before a Senate subcommittee that,
for most inner city African American children, the
relation of sound to spelling is different and more
complicated
dian
for speakers of other dialects. He
suggested that it was time to apply this knowledge to
the teaching of reading.
The testimony barkened back to research
contained in his groundbreaking book Language in
the Inner City, originally published in
1972.
In it,
Labov probed the question "Does 'Black English'
exist?" and emerged with an answer that was well
ahead of its time, one that remains essential to our
contemporary understanding of the subject.
Language in the Inner City firmly establishes
African American Vernacular English not simply as
slang but as a well-formed set of rules of
pronunciation and grammar capable of conveying
complex logic and reasoning. Studying not only the
normal processes of communication in the inner
city but such art forms as the ritual insult and
ritualized narrative, Labov confirms the Black
vernacular as a separate and independent dialect of
English. His analysis goes on to clarify the nature
and processes of linguistic change
iti
tlie
context of
a changing society.
Perhaps even more today than two decades ago,
Labov's conclusions are mandatoiy reading for
anyone
concenïed
with education and social change,
with African American culture, and with the future
of race relations in this country.
William Labov is Professor of Linguistics at the
University of Pennsylvania. |
