Univ. of Washington - Tacoma believes established grammar is racist

So Asao Inoue believes that proper grammar use is racist and the university will not penalize improper grammar even when used in English writing classes.
I'm sure graduates from Inoue's program will have no problem writing proper resumes and grammatically correct cover letters to obtain real jobs in that racist world out there.
Parents, beware what you pay for!

Is there an ongoing effort to translate school textbooks into Ebonics?

You should add that it's UW-Tacoma that this article is talking about.
That would be like a professor from LSU- Eunice saying something and it reported that LSU - the flagship - was saying it.
The University of Washington is one of the best research institutions in the world.

If we officially sanction the type of spellling and grammar I see on Social Media from young, inarticulate people, I've got a better shot at understanding Manderin in a Louyang dialect.

Low expectations are racist.

Someone forgot to communicate that to the 'Dr.'

As a person who often has poor grammar, I can get behind this.
I would also like all of my papers in school to retroactively reflect this change. I may be white, but I'm a victim too.

The racism of low expectations, a liberal staple.

I live in Tacoma. The black people don't even use Ebonics.

Grammar, according to the posters in the writing center, can “justify placing people in hierarchies or restricting opportunities and privileges because of the way people communicate in particular versions of English.”

I thought you lived north of Seattle?
Tacoma used to be my old stomping grounds.
If you like sammiches (who doesn't?) check out MSM deli if you don't already know the place.
