Well, this confirms it for me. Law Enforcement has no clue about ethnicity and possibly even diversity in America. Is it that they do not have enough people of color in their ranks from the “hood” to understand street language? What’s an Ebonics expert anyway? What credentials do you need to be an Ebonics expert? Atlanta. New Orleans. They are having issues of linguistics there? All you have to do is go to any Community College in the “hood” and hold a job fair you will find more than enough “experts.” This is inanely ludacris to me.
