143. I'm Confused.
If a young African American boy or girl wants to succeed in the United States shouldn't he or she be encouraged to speak "proper" English. I would think you could substitute any race or ethnic group for African American and the statement would be true.

We should all celebrate our differences but there should be an agreement on some common language...
