AFST 250 - African-American English

Fall or Spring (4) Charity-Hudley (College 200, CSI, ACTV)

This course explores the sociolinguistics of English spoken by African-Americans in the United States. We examine the relationship of African-American English to linguistic theory, education praxis, and American culture. This course prepares students for community-based research. (This course is anchored in the CSI domain, and also considers aspects of the ALV domain.)      (Cross listed with LING 250 )
