Most white people simply cannot grasp that AAVE is a separate language, not “broken” English.
This is partly due to AAVE’s more-complex, stricter governing rules—which were originally curated to confuse white people; Black people acquire these rules naturally.

A bill to break up UnitedHealth, CVS, Cigna and more has been introduced by a bipartisan group of U.S. senators and representatives.
The legislation would force insurers to sell their pharmacy businesses.
It aims to combat PBMs, pharma middlemen who drive up costs.
