520 |a Recently much linguistic research has been amassed on black language. With rare exceptions, this linguistic research has been directed to the lower working-class members of the black community. The language of blacks who are not lower class, on the other hand, has been summarily ignored, resulting in the middle-class black protest against the popularization and romanticization of ghetto varieties of English. The neglect of black varieties of English spoken by middle-class blacks has served to promote a negative stereotypical notion of black speech no different from linguistic stereotypes of former days. There is testimony that standard speech is no new arrival to the black community. What most linguists have failed to realize is the new dynamic within the black revolution which encourages an appreciation of divergent forms of black behavior for no other reason than the fact that it is black. The concept of a black standard or, more correctly, black standards for English is a new concept which requires elaboration and refinement. (HOD)
