Why AAVE And ‘Blackronyms’ Hold Cultural And Historical Power
It's become a cool language trend where everyone wants to drop "savage" or "lit" to sound hip. While it may seem harmless, it perpetuates cultural appropriation and erases the history behind AAVE. _____________ 2-Minute Black History is produced by PushBlack, the nation's largest non-profit Black media company. PushBlack exists to amplify the stories of Black history you didn't learn in school. You make PushBlack happen with your contributions at BlackHistoryYear.com — most people donate $10 a month, but every dollar makes a difference. If this episode moved you, share it with your people!
