Note 1: When I was writing Pretty City Murder, there was some dialog between two Hispanic thugs. My editor said I could not fake it, so the dialog was thrown into the “never to be seen again” pile.
Note 2: When I subbed at a predominantly black school in San Francisco, the school counselor came to my classroom at my request to restore order, and I think he was speaking AAVE. I couldn’t reproduce his scolding if I tried.
Note 3: When I subbed at an elementary school in a predominantly black neighborhood, although the school was mixed, it was the only time I was asked to be a permanent sub. It was first grade, and the children were darling, but my six feet cannot stoop below sixth or higher.
