A group of linguistics professors argued that teaching standard English is “racist” and should be removed from colleges. Hosted by Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia on Oct. 6, the event looked at “Linguistic Justice as Anti-Racist Practice.”
Professor Bridget Anderson spoke first, arguing that there was, “no such thing" as a "correct and incorrect way to speak” going on to argue that, when people frame language as “proper/improper, correct/incorrect” it “shows that they don’t understand the way that language actually works.”
