This research paper: A 3 page reaction paper to an essay by Susan Madera, "One Voice," on learning standard English. Madera records how the language of her upbringing and youth, her "neighborhood" language, differs from standard English and how this placed her outside of mainstream society. There has been a great deal written concerning racial prejudice and the issue of using standard English. Madera's insightful essay shows that there is considerable prejudice towards users of non-standard language, regardless of race and that the use of standard English acts as a gatekeeper to mainstream society. Bibliography lists 3 sources (but is incomplete).
