Perhaps it's the linguist in me, perhaps it's because I read your lesson and I'm feeling angry/frustrated/annoyed on your behalf, but it bears repeating that AAVE is not slang. As you mentioned in your lesson, many AAVE words and phrases have been turned into slang, but it's because of appropriation and the disrespect for Black people and Black language. I don't think slang is always necessarily derogatory, but it is... discomforting to see the entirety of AAVE referred to as slang, to say the least.

Again, I apologize if this is overstepping your authority or knowledge considering you've already delivered the lesson. I myself am an educator in public education and try to find opportunities to educate my peers, colleagues, and students (if I can manage without being flagged for it) about how to be anti-racist, how to recognize racism in everyday life, and how to recognize anti-Blackness specifically as it manifests in the United States.

Please feel free to answer this privately, but these are just my personal thoughts on the subject.
