there is (almost) nothing that irks me more than seeing non-black people use AAVE. i’ve had situations where i code switch around people and they’ve made fun of me for it or witnessing people use it to perpetuate this stereotype of black people being uneducated and inarticulate. so yes, to me and many other black people i know, it feels like yet another thing being taken from us by those who otherwise oppress us. if you don’t know the history of AAVE, if you don’t know how to use it correctly and with respect to the culture it comes from, and/or if you’re not part of the AA part of that acronym you shouldn’t be using it.
so this is just a little psa stop using AAVE if you’re not black, please. thank you.
white people should reblog this the most.

Therapists aren’t people who you “pay to pretend to care about you”, therapists are people you pay to teach you how to care for yourself
