Why is it so hard for black people to annunciate?
I have never met one that doesn't speak like a stereotype. I've only seen a couple british blacks on tv that speak clearly and without ebonics.
I am not a racist, but I'm also not very well versed in biology or physiology. Is there a fundamental physical difference that causes this?

It's the same reason why british people speak like retards, or why frogs speak like frogs. People that you interact with in early stages of your life speak with a determined accent, and you pick it while learning how to speak.

The British educational system is superior to the American educational system. So good is it, in fact, that we can teach chimps to enunciate perfectly. God save the Queen.

Because it's more "black" to talk like that since they don't wanna sound like a cracka ass whitey.
Unless you want people to respect you, then you can't have ebonic accent. For example, Obama, Tyreese smokedegrasse Neillson and a few others.

It's called an accent.

No,l ebonics is a totally different language structure. It's like a pidgin.
It's a tonal launguage, english is not. For example 'He been working' means something totally different if you say it like 'He BEEN working'. English has no rules as as such, it's a different language based on english. Anyone with basic education on liguistics knows that, smhtbhfam

I am a non-native speaker, and it's really hard for me to understand what negroes are talking about. So hard, I can't even eat at KFC anymore (I loved it in my home country), because I can't understand them and it's embarrassing.

Man, it's not hard to say 'one' or 'seven' or 'fried chicken in a bucket, please' I don't know what the fuck you're talking about,

But then they start asking questions, like which sides do I want (took me a while to figure that out), etc. They might as well ask me in French.

It is physiological. Mouth shape mainly.

Inflection does not a tonal system make.
Your choice of sociolect or dialect has inflection too.

He WAS working
