This book is a must for teachers and parents of African American students.

Why do many Blacks say finna, skrimps, ax, skrate, and fixin' to ? Why don't teachers correct Black English in primary classrooms? Why do African Americans have the lowest standardized test scores? The African American Guide to Better English increases awareness, improves student achievement, and provides advocacy for those wanting to speak mainstream English.
