The E-Word

This documentary critically considers the Ebonics Resolution as well as the myriad of influences on the public debate (or lack thereof) that erupted as a result of the Resolution. Through the use of archival footage and interviews with scholars, policymakers and, most importantly, those directly involved with the Resolution, the documentary pursues a coherent and comprehensive engagement of the Resolution and Ebonics itself. Finally, the film considers the manner in which the intersections of race, class and language continue to influence us.
